Default Begonias- can they be over wintered ?

Hi everyone, ages since I've been here, I hope everyone is well and
enjoyed the glorious summer!

My question is can my begonias be saved over the winter? I bought them from
B&Q early in the summer and they have flowered consistently from then and
are still in full flower now. Unfortunately I do not have a greenhouse (lack
of space) so I have potted them up ready to move into my porch. I didn't
keep the plant labels (as usual!) so I'm not sure what type of begonia they
are, picture at http://members.lycos.co.uk/bluezidium/ While I was
re-potting them I could not see any tubers or rhizomes they just seem to
have a mass of fine roots.

Its quite likely I will not be able to save them, but I think it is worth a
try!

Thanks in advance

Jeff
