No, they will not overwinter outside but I have kept mine in the garage between shelf units .. plastic hanging over and on the shelves. ...sort of like a mini greenhouse...I have a flourescent light over it and use a small space heater on the coldest nights. I have kept it this way for several years. It does well all winter then loses all its leaves just as spring begins. I move it outside and it grows well. This is its 5 th yr. I actually have 4 plants in this pot. The pic is from last year. I just potted it up to a larger pot. sp[arse on leaves.. this is early in the year... they started as those really tiny ones from walmart... I mean tiny.
