I have a dark purple one, it did really well outside in the garden until about November but I had to take it out when it started to get cold as it didn't look good. I brought it indoors and although there is no leaves and it looks really dry it is sprouting all over.

Should I keep it indoors or plant it out in the garden again??/

Hiya birdie, I remember you asking about this before winter! I am so pleased that it has survived!

Definitely plant it out again, but only once all threat of frost has passed - most probably mid May, by which time it will be bursting out all over the place. Keep your eye on the weather predictions to see whether it will be frosty. You could actually keep it in a pot, to make it easier to move around. It will be happy outside in the pot.

Well done. Can we see a photo of it in Summer please?
