Can i leave my nemesia in the ground over winter? It’s quite a cold spot... I am actually wondering if i should moved it somewhere sunnier, as it’s very leggy and doesn’t look to happy. Would it be a good time or should i get it into a pot for the winter (inside the shed). Thanks

    I planted a few nemesias in a planter along with other plants and left them outside over winter.
    I noticed the following spring that one of the nemesias had some tiny green buds, so I left it and in a fairly short space of time it managed to do this-



    It was the winter of 2015 that it survived, but I can't remember if that was a mild or a cold winter..

    Mine survive outside but I always take the seeds and grow a fresh tray every year,  prick them out as you would Lobelia.
