Default Re: growing through uk winter

Good question and it will depend on a combination of the light levels and temps. For instance my greenhouse has polycarb windows and i line it with bubble wrap to store our non hardy plants overwinter. My nanas still tend to grow albeit at a much slowed rate as long as the temps are in double figures. Once they are down to 4°c or less then the more tender nanas will start to suffer.
