Will these plants survive the -8 temperatures we've just had? Mine are kept in pots.

My friend has one of these in her back garden, on very well-drained soil, trained against a trellis. She covers it with fleece in autumn and leaves it on in colder periods. Last winter, it survived one night of -8C here.

Probably only if you have kept them in a greenhouse. Failing that, up against the house would be best. Unfortunately the soil in the pots has probably frozen solid which they will not enjoy. Fingers crossed for you!
