overwintering My 2 Best Over-Wintered Plants

The Goats Weed was outside all winter and the Bishops crown was inside. I have several that died from bringing them outside to early and only one of my Fatalii's survived. Here are a couple pics. The bottom one is the bishops crown

Looking good Nick!  My BC is in the dirt.  I pruned it back over the winter and it is doing tremendous.  Thanks for sharing!
4/5 bishops in the ground died and one looks like it will make it, but I have several volunteers so I will be ok.
 
Of my outdoor raised bed (deep depth) last season about half my plants survived and are on year two (outside entire time). There were 24 in the raised bed. None of my Chinense survived. The survivors were Baccatums and a Pubescen. Two of those survivors were Bishop's Crown. Baccatums are buff plants.
 
Yes the Baccatums seem to over-winter well in our climate and so do the Pubes. I even had 3 Jalapeno's and 1 bell pepper survive outside.
