I have 1 pink coreopsis and 1 coral bells in pots which were started from
seed in late spring (Western Ontario, zone 5 - we had a weird season this
year...cold, wet and fall like).
I am wondering if it would be ok to transplant them to the garden now or
if
I should bring them indoors through the winter and wait until next spring
to
transplant them.
The coreopsis is in bloom right now and although it has not yet grown to
full potential it has quite a lot of flowers. The coral bells never
bloomed.

Thank you,

Get those plants in the ground ASAP. Both species need a cold dormant
period
in winter and will do fine if they settle in before a hard freeze. They
should
have time if you get goin' now. They're simply first-year perennials and
should
be treated as such with a good winter mulch. Don't try to overwinter them
indoors.

Best,
Tyra
