In the fall, you should dig them up and store them in a cool dry place at around 40F. Mist them occasionally so they don't dry out completely. It the Spring they will start to grow again. Pot them up or plant them outside after threat of frost. Good luck

Its a bit late to start them this year as they are slow to get going. But you can buy them ready grown and then save them for next year. There are lots of different varieties including trailing ones so make sure you get the kind you're after. Depends what you want them for too - they are expensive to use for bedding but great for containers.

When you do grow from tubers you plant them with the slightly hollow side upwards and the top of the tuber above the surface of the compost.
