Climbing Gloxinia can not be overwintered outdoors
Hibernate climbing gloxinia frost-free
Climbing gloxinia are not really hardy, though that's more common. Not only the cold plays a role here. Above all, the soil moisture in winter sets the plants very much. So hibernate a climbing gloxinia properly.
Outdoor climbing gloxinia hibernate
If you want to hibernate a climbing gloxinia in the field, the plant needs a well-protected location, where it should not freeze. The soil must be well drained, so that in no case waterlogging arises.
Cover the ground with mulch material. Protect the tubers with wire baskets before planting to prevent rats, mice or moles from hitting them.
