Working my way quickly through the posts, then have to get back to work.

A question for some of our gardner hobbits. (I do worse with plants than with goldfish...). We have two Vincas hanging in baskets on the front porch. The tag with them said they would withstand down to 32 degrees. What's the best place/way to keep them inside until the spring?

Or should I just plan on buying new ones in the spring?

I'd buy new ones in the spring. It's easier. I can't grow nothing... not even my hair.

I'm not a great gardener...I'm just learning. I would guess you could just treat them as you would any houseplant, though. We did that with some flowers out at the house.

I can't help you with the indoor plants; all mine are silk/polyester. I kill any growing green thing that unfortunately makes its way into my house!
