i had mine in apot for quite a while,its now in the ground and the frost has damaged the tops a little and made them crispy and black in small areas.i would just cut the damaged bits out probably in may after the frost has gone.they don't like really cold wind either.
they normally grow in any soil type but you could give a feed of miraclegrow..
