No, unfortunately I chickened out this year on keeping them outide. lol Partly because I wanted to keep as much Pstem alive as possible and start off tall when I put them back in next April. The ground where most of mine were planted stays pretty waterlogged in the fall and winter months so I didn't trust the space they would've been in during winter anyway, and also they were on an edge of a garden which gets plowed over each spring so there was no guarantee they would be left undisturbed or intact lol All in all I chose to go the dry root overwinter method this year.
