hello............has anyone had any luck in wintering a plumbago in zone 4. It is almost time to make a decision as to what to do about it. Bring it in the warm house, cut it back, put it in the cool garage. Any advice would be appreciated

I bring my plumbago indoors for the Winter, when the temps start reaching the middle 40's. I place it in a summy window. It fares well for the few months it lives inside. I am in zone 6.

I bring mine in too... It probably would be ok. I know Sonnenberg gardens has Plumbago, an I'm pretty sure they leave it out. We were just there yesterday and I saw it out. Still looks good, I'm in 6a, but I've already brought mine in. Meredith
