I have a few mini carnation
plants in pots on my deck outside. However, they are annuals, and I'd like to bring them inside for the winter so that next year, I will not have to start all over with small
plants. It took all
spring and summer for them to reach the point where they are large enough to
flower well, and I'd really like to winter them over if possible. Does anyone know the best way to do this? Do I keep them in an unheated garage, or indoors under grow lights? I know I can take cuttings of them, but carnations grow so slowly that I don't know if they will be big by
spring. Plus, I've never had much luck with cuttings. And I'm not sure fall is the best time to take them anyway. Thanks....
