I'm was talking about tropicals also. I just thought it was odd to say they would "freeze" at a temperature almost 30 degrees above freezing. My tropical Hibiscus have been outside all year and we have been getting night temps in the 40s and 50s for at least a month with no sign of stress. Mine probably will only be brought in when there is a threat of mid 30's.

But it sound to me like Colleen might be interested in growing them indoors year round, not just over wintering and I have no experience in that.
