Good morning. Is the Fushia microphylla frost- and snow-hardy? I have a lovely one growing in a pot and am wondering if I should bring it indorrs during the winter.

Many thanks.

Half-hardy Guest can't take any frost, I'd move to a frost free environment for the winter.

mine was outside all last winter, forgotten and tucked under/behind a larger pot. it was cut down to the ground by the winter and finally showed new leaf two weeks ago. I wouldnt recommend leaving it outside. I had totally forgotten about it.
