8 plants to bring indoors in November – to overwinter and keep safe from frost

Frosty olive tree.

November is a time when the temperatures drop and lots of tender plants that love the heat of summer need lifting or moving to be sheltered for winter. These heat-loving plants can easily be killed by frosts and icy winds, so need to be given a home indoors or undercover for the colder months.

Whether you need to move them, and when, will be dependent on your US hardiness zone. Some tender trees and perennials may be able to successfully overwinter outside in warmer climates, but for those living in areas with colder winters it is advisable to add moving these plants to your fall gardening checklist.
