I live in zone six and that is what I have done. Bring it indoors when temps cool off in fall and take back outside when danger of frost has passed. I do have my plants under florescent lights while indoors.

I brought mine in and it grew to 8 ft. tall. Because of the broad leaves it drinks a lot of water and you have to monitor it constantly if it is in a pot and it will dry out faster if it is outdoors in a pot. It was a fairly happy plant indoors this winter even with a northern exposure. I took some cuttings and rooted them last month. Washington DC area.

It should work.. It's actually what I'm planning to do because I'm up in the mountains and we get weather well below freezing in the winter. I'd use a good sized pot and you'll want to trim shrub and roots back probably after the growing season.

It's the Laurus nobilis; in a mild climate, it can be left outdoors in the winter (if protected from a freeze), but otherwise should be brought inside during winter months. In our zone 10, it's planted in the yard and has reached 8-10 ft. high by 4-5 ft. wide in 10 years. Potted, it will stay smaller.

well to be honest it depends on how old the plant is. My mother had an old one and it came back every year in the spring, I am in MO so sometimes we do have a hard winter. but mine are still very young so I have them in pots and will bring them inside for the winter. Hope this helps.

Most certainly. I grow cold season annuals in mine in zone seven. It's too difficult to keep it the proper temperature for tender plants.

Yes you can, mine did great last summer, but died during the winter. I will plant more this Spring and hope it will take hold better and live through the Winter. Good Luck

The pot is flimsy. You would need to replace it. Wintergreen is designed to be a ground cover plant and would do best if you planted directly in the ground.

It is troipical so I'd put in a pot and bring insice in winter. I put mine in south window area - dead of winter it is abt 50 in that rm at night

It depends on where you live. If you are south of TN or MO you can plant them anytime. I live in a slightly colder area so I keep mine as house plants in winter. In the summer I divide them. Some go in the garden as annuals (though some come back) and the rest as hanging baskets or porch pots. Anyway you use them, they are wonderful.

Your plant should be in a 'pot' - the pot sits in the planter. I love this planter!!!!

It is a tropical plant. So, if you live in an area that is warm all year, you should be able to plant it outside. Unfortunately, I live in zone 6. I have mine potted. It is outside for about 6-8 months and inside the house for the rest.

Yes, ths plant is a very common indoor plant. Most people keep this plant indoors during the winter, and outside during the summer.

Sorry, but I live in an area where it gets really cold. If I were you I would contact the business your plant came from. Good Luck

Yes, but I repotted it as is my usual practice when receiving plants via mail. I have kept the plant in the garage this winter, as I live in zone 6A-5B. We shall see how hardy the plant is come warmer weather.

I am living in Michigan. I moved the plant pot indoor during the winter season.

I have mine in a large pot and it is doing beautifully! It needs more water in hot times, but thrives. I moved it to Colorado where I keep it in a greenhouse during the winter.

Yes. The pot it comes in is small. You would need to put it in a bigger pot or in the ground right away. I planted mine, it's doing fine.

I live in middle TN & our weather is similar. Put in a large pot , leave it on a porch out of direct light in the summer, and bring it in when the temp starts getting cold (about 45F). It should be okay. I had surgery & wasn't able to bring mine in this winter & it died-my fault. I will get another one in the spring. Also, they are not very big plants. Be sure to google search for the right amount of different soil: high grade potting soil, mulch & I think at least one other. You can buy these at any place that specializes with plants. Just mix them up & plant- DO NOT OVER WATER. Good Luck!
