    We bought this plant in July and it grew vigorously up garden netting which we attached to two poles stuck in a large garden pot on the apartment balcony - lots of bloom and twice the size. Now that it's mid October we're unsure how to care for it during the winter. It gets very windy out there.

    Any experiential advice out there?

    Thanks

    Not hardy outdoors in this region.

    Didn't think so ... can I bring it inside ... we have lots of outdoor light in the living room ... and lightly water it during winter. Thanks Ron

    Still looks OK and flowering Ron. Brought it inside today. This is a sunny spot facing south. We'll see.
