If I transplant this from a bed to a pot will it survive over winter?

    Yes. Just make sure you get a decent enough rootball on it, and plant at the same depth in the pot as it is in the ground  :)
    They do like free draining soil, so make sure it has that, and it would be a good idea to keep the pot up off the ground to help with drainage too.
    Some varieties are a bit more short lived than others, and less hardy, so bear that in mind too. It can often be worth taking cuttings if you can. 
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    I have that one, and a red/burgundy one,and both have been quite reliably hardy,so I wouldnt think you'd have a problem. Good luck.
    The whole truth is an instrument that can only be played by an expert.
