I'm scrambling to get everything in as the temperatures are supposed to drop into the 40's during the night this week. Naturally I don't have everything ready so I'm plotting my priority order and since I'm pretty inexperienced with begonias I thought I'd seek the help of those who aren't. I have some beautiful canes that I want to bring in...how much cold will they take? I only had one plant last year and it seems to me that I didn't bring it in until right before the first frost, but I don't want to take the chance if I really shouldn't.

Will somebody please take pity on this poor procrastinating soul?
