I've just bought a selection of hardy ferns - I've
got the ideal spot for them, I think, as other
ferns and mosses are doing very well there. My
question is this, as they are currently doing very
well in their pots, would be better to overwinter
them in the pots, outside or in a cold greenhouse,
or just plant out now. Any advice gratefully
received.

Thanks in anticipation.

In your location, any of these might work.

Yes, I realise there isn't too much risk of losing
any with either strategy, I just wondered if one
was better than the other. I am a little concerned
that a winter in a cold greenhouse may make them a
bit soft, however.
