Where Should I Store Perennial Plants In The Winter

Question

I didn’t get a chance to put my perennials in the ground before the ground froze, where should I store them? Outside, in the garage or basement?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, this depends on the type of plants in question. You will want to treat them as they would in their native environment. Tropicals will need to be grown indoors, and anything that would naturally go through a dormancy will need to be put to sleep.
