You might bring them in an unheated garage as long as it doesn't go below the minimum temperature they prefer. I could be wrong about this but if you do this, I'd think you should water them during dormancy once a month.
Allow them to get quite dry while still outdoors. Cut them back & store in a cool, dark basement. Keep them almost but not completely dry for the winter. Start to water when temps allow. At the first sign of new growth, lift them from the pot, remove all the soil, prune the roots hard, and repot into fresh soil with excellent drainage and aeration.
