Brought the plants in from the landing

It is November 2 and there is a frost warning for tomorrow night so it is time to bring in what I want to save. I put the basil and 3 pots of geraniums on the glass-topped table in front of the windows in the front room. I've had basil last until the spring (when I just plant a new pack of seeds) but I've never done geraniums before. I'm not sure how long they will last. I left the mums outside as they are already mostly dead even after regular watering. They never last for me.

Geraniums are perennials where I live. But I have to plant again basil every year as they go to seed.

I plant basil in a pot every year.

@NJChicaa I will plant everything in pots this year. But it is not a problem of weather. Luna might also want to garden if plants were in the soil.

It's definitely getting to be that time. The weather is getting cooler.

Sometimes, the geraniums last a while

Geraniums can last if they get enough sun. Good luck

I hope the geraniums last a long time. I'm still seeing some plants outside here, but it won't be long until they're all inside. We had 20s last night.
