My husband and I found these tubers on the beach and brought them home to grow and see what they did. They are doing awesome in a pot on my patio. My question is this....I live in MN and am wondering what I can do with them over the winter months. Can I make them into a houseplant somehow? Any and all help is very appreciated!

I really don't know anything about duck potato plants but I would imagine you'd just let the foliage die back naturally and then place it in a frost-free spot until the spring.
