Until I read this page, I never knew one could grow them in the house. I do bring them in during a hard freeze after cutting them from the parent plant. I put them under the bed until spring, then plant them. If they still have leaves, I plant them into a large container. They do quite well that way and then I have many plants to add to my collection. What special needs do they have if I choose to keep some of them inside? I look forward to hearing from all of you lovers of plumarrias. God bless you all!
