I started in the spring with 9 dragon wing plants, I took cuttings from the end of june on, and I now have around 300 starts!

I have a raised bed in my yard and I have ordered some thermostat controled heat cables to put in the soil. They are controled at 72-74 degrees. I'm getting some pvc pipe and plastic and making a large hoop to go over the bed. I'm planting all of the starts in there, as well as my purple fountain grass.

I'm not a very seasoned gardener, but trying. Do you long timers think this will work to keep them alive over the winter? What else should I do?

Here is a picture of a few of them. You can see all of my little geraniums I started from seed in June in front of them.
