My hens &chicks are in a retaining wall at the back of the patio - have thus far survived for years with sustained periods of temps at 20 to 30 below zero. The drainage is good and they remain under snow.

I don't do much with containers, but the only thing I might do if you're worried is move the strawberry pot to a corner or someplace you feel is a bit more sheltered. I believe H&C's are hardy down to Zone 3.

If they were planted in the ground...no problem. Planted in a pot...I don't know......my garlic chives over winter in outdoor pots.

Maybe someone else here grows them in a pot and can help you.......?

I would dig a hole, and plant the pot and hens and chicks. Pots freeze faster, cause they are usually above ground.

In the ground doesn't freeze as fast.

Moni

never heard of them what do they look like?

I'm in zone 6 and mine stayed fine in pots for many years.......until I decided to put them in the ground. Big mistake.

But you are much farther north and probably get colder than here. I would agree to put them in a southern exposure, out of the wind, corner if you have one.

Minnie, they're a succulent plant with gray leaves, sometimes with a green or maroon cast to them, & the big "mother hen" plant reproduces by offsets of smaller "chicks".

My grandmother had them forever, in an old, shallow, round, enamel-clad cast iron dishpan (probably rusted through on the bottom!), white with a red edge.

It sat under a pine tree summer & winter, & the plants thrived.

Thanks for the memories!

I think I would just cover them with straw.
