Overwintering Strawberries and Physilis

[ItsEssexRob]

How do I do both? I have about 30 strawberry runner cuttings I have potted and are rooting. But I understand they wont survive a cold winter? By November my plastic greenhouse should be empty of Toms peppers and Aubergines so I could place them in there? That or just cover them with a fleece in the corner. Same with my Physilis bush, do I place it in the Greenhouse or cover it with a fleece.

Thanks

Rob

Strawberries are very hardy and as I mentioned on another thread yesterday my runner survive totally unprotected in 3" plastic pots every winter, just outside, often still sat next to the parent plant if I've been lazy. Snow etc doesn't bother them so long as they don't get totally waterlogged. No idea about Physilis but seem to think that they might be tender. If so then you'll probably need to bring inside but others will know much better on that then me as I don't like them

Rob, Here's the Strawberry thead Alison mentioned ^^^^http://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/gra...nts_67887.html
I would bring your Physalis undercover - mine spent its whole life in an unheated greenhouse.
