I hate the thought of putting them in the ground. They'd look good in that rock garden I started, but I just don't want them out there in the winter.

I'd like to keep them inside - can I transfer them to potting soil and raise them inside?

Yeah . . . I'll put them in potting soil. I don't like to bring them in from outside with the garden soil - you don't know what bugs are in it.

Guess that'll happen at the end of September.

I might just do that - bring them in without changing the soil.

I spray them with the light suds (it works outside, or seems to - the bugs seem to stop making the holes).

Thanks for sharing that.

Weezie, I have a baby one that I took from my mom's neighbor's garden. It is sitting in a glass of water on my kitchen sink to get roots. I think there are a few roots now, coming from underneath the chick, not on the stem itself. Anyways, would it be ok for me to plant this outside this year, or would I be better off keeping it in a pot until the spring? I am glad to hear it's hardy, but not sure if it'll "establish" before it's maybe too cool for it?
