Overwintering Potted Hybrid Teas in New Jersey

Overwintering Potted Hybrid Teas in New Jersey

Hybrid teas survive outdoors in ground. For pots:

Leave outside until leaves drop (frost won't kill).
This allows natural hardening.
Then move to unheated garage (no light needed).
Water 1 cup monthly to prevent total dry-out.

Why Not Indoors

Indoor warmth prevents hardening; active growth dies in cold. Garage mimics natural dormancy.
