Why not the first year?

They don't transmogrify into something else in the second year.

I've even had unrooted plants survive the winter outdoors with no harm.

Just let the plants be and enjoy the red color of the leaves in winter.
You
should leave the plants outside over the winter because they are cold
hardy.

I grew strawberries for the first time this year, I have just put the
tub
into the greenhouse to overwinter.
the leaves are starting to turn red and some are becoming dry and
brittle.
should I cut back the foliage at all, and if so by how much?

anyone got any ideas?
