I thougt it would do ok being that it is directly against a window on a table. I am in nowthwest South Carolina near the North Carolina border, zone 7 I believe. Should I put it back outside where it was in the winter? Will it survive freezes? There is an umbrella table on our deck if it would work there but I am wondering if I can save it at this point or just where to put it outside. I plan to put my outside table in my garage where it is very cool with a grow flourescent light (4') above it if this might work better. I also have a japanese boxwood and some wintergreen boxwoods. Do there like cooler locations also or can I bring them in. As it is evident I am new at this but have been somewhat successful since I took an interest a little over 6 months ago. I have even been successful air layering some azalias and gardenias as well as a rhododendron with the large leaves. Thanks for any suggestions.
