I'm glad to hear that, Liz. I transplanted mine into gallon pots right away and I'll be transferring them to the ground sometime in the next week or so. I left all of the potted ones outside this year, except for two trailing ones, but even they would have been fine outside, I think.
I did bring in about 70 or 80 tropical plants -- hibiscus, kalanchoe, mandevilla, plumeria, etc. I lovingly brought them inside in the beginning of November and treated them with the utmost care for the first couple of months. I grew so sick of seeing them inside, however, that I put them all back outside a week ago and now I barely care whether they live or die.
Much more trouble than they're worth!
