My sister gave me this month's Gardeners' World and this article reminded me of a question.  I was given an echiveria by a little boy in nursery. It was in a tiny pot so this summer I put it in a terracotta pot and it's been in the garden growing bigger and bigger. Will it survive the winter out there? It is in compost with a little grit covering the surface of the pot. I could bring it under cover if needs be. |

I think it would be a good idea to bring it inside and have it near a bright window Jasmine. |

Thank you isabella. I was just a bit unsure as my granny used to grow them in the cracks in her patio in Norwich so they didn't get any special treatment over winter although I think I remember her harvesting lots of little babies which perhaps got more careful treatment. |

Sorry for the late reply....
They were Sempervivums not Echeverias. Sempervivums are hardy, Echeverias by and large aren’t. They do look similar though.
Hope that helps.
