Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comI live in Central Ohio. I ordered Dicliptera [jacobinia] suberecta in early July but did not get until August. It’s now September 11 and I’m thinking it’s too late to plant outside, but can I plant and keep indoors until next spring. The plants are approx. 3″ tall, so very tender.

Yes you are right about protecting it for the winter. Your climate is too cold to grow this species outdoors year round as a perennial, so as the following article suggests, you can grow it as an annual. To keep it inside for the winter, give it as much light as possible, a south facing window if you can. Let the soil dry out between waterings. As small as it is, I think it will make it.
