It isn't a vine, it's a tree and no, it wouldn't survive staying outside, even if mulched heavily. They really are easy to hold over in the house, heated garage, wheverever it will stay about 45 degrees or above. They don't even need a lot of light to live through the winter. When you bring them back out in the spring, they begin growing like crazy. Cuttings will work as well. Here is a picture of a three year old brug that I've held over in a heated shop each winter. I'm debating on whether to take cuttings this year or hold it over again. Will know more this fall.
