This plant if beautiful - I've been given one in a pot can you tell me how best to overwinter it - should I put it in a cold greenhouse or keep it indoors??

Hi woodside, i keep mine outside all year, but i live by the sea and have very little frost. a cold greenhouse should be fine keep it as dry as possible in the winter. when potting up next spring mix lots of sand with the compost to help the drainage.

I can't tell you how much this takes me back to my childhood home by the beach in So. California. These were in our yard, but also grew wild all around the cliffs~
