This past Spring i planted a few Chameleon which are perennials. The tag read that they are relatively new introduction from Asia. They did great all summer long and i would love to add more of them next year. Now that winter is nearing i am wondering if there is any special care i need to give them for the winter or to get them ready for winter? Do i need to do anything to them such as cut them back now that we have had a couple light frosts, or can i just let them go until spring? I will post a picture of what these plants looked like after being in the ground from early spring this past season until now. They are the green plant next too the impatients. I really like these for the unique shaped leaves and there colors of yellow, green, bronze and scarlett red. The also bllom white flowers in the summer. Is anyone familiar with these and can you tell me what care i need to give them for winter?
