Frank,

Congrats on you var. itinerans making it through the winter.

If memory serves me correctly, you told me you think that is what I have. I overwintered mine in a pot and moved it in and out of the garage as temps dictated this winter and at all times it kept at least one green leaf. I still have it in a pot and it has been outside continuously for well over a month now. I will likely keep it in its pot as it really seems to like to run. I really need it in a bigger pot as I just put it in a 3 gallon for overwintering purposes.
