[quote=Anonymous]Interested on hearing what others in the DMV (I am in MoCo) overwinter and what methods you use. I spent the morning taking cuttings of coleus, which easily root in water and will live as houseplants for the winter. I also took cuttings of geraniums and put them in a mix in hopes they will root. I tend to have bad luck that way. My best luck with geraniums is to bring them in as houseplants in a sunny window. But I have more geraniums than windows, so hoping for a new method. I also started cutting back lantana to bring inside — I have a huge pot of lantana that is now several years old and does great in my sunny basement all winter. One question: I see a lot of recommendations to put plants in an unheated garage and let them go dormant. It feels like it will get too cold in our area even in a garage. Does anyone have luck with that? [/quote]
