I am in a little 'burg half way between Louisville, KY and Cincinnati, OH on the Ohio River. Winter temps can get to below 0, but generally stay above 20. I love tropical plants, but much prefer colder temps to hot ones. I plan to retire to Wisconsin when the time comes. I might need a green house then.
As to the bugs, I don't spray them so the spiders can take care of the other bugs in the house. Spiders are such useful little critters.
Do I cut prior to them going dormant, after they're asleep or just before Springtime?
