How should I overwinter my Mühlenbeckia?

If you do not know which type of Mühlenbeckia you have, frost-free winter quarters are always a good solution. If you have a Mühlenbeckia as a houseplant, then it can be a little cooler in winter than in the growth phase.

The essentials in brief:

  • Mühlenbeckia axillaris can overwinter outside
  • Mühlenbeckia complexa needs frost-free winter quarters
  • little watering (outside only on frost-free days)
  • do not fertilize
  • shorten before moving to winter quarters (saves space)

Tips

If you don't know exactly what kind of Mühlenbeckia you have, then overwinter the plant frost-free or at least give it good winter protection from leaves and brushwood.
