There are basically 2 options. 1. Have an ideal greenhouse so the plummies can grow year round....or at least continue to retain its green leafy grow during the winter months. 2. To keep them in dormant state (asleep) during the winter. Doing so can be simple, give them the minimum temp. of above 50F. degrees. Well aeration, (to prevent mold flourishing), dark environment. Withhold water, and simply repot next spring after last frost. Good luck Barry, I keep mine in the basement with all the growing requirement they need. This way -- has its benefits also some drawback as well....
