new grower

hello

i have recently got some pf, i am new to growing these but they look so lovely i got a constance eliott, purple haze, princess eugenie, amanthyst and a common blue, all are growing really well, some are in pots and the hardy ones are in the soil. Some are doing really well, some a little more slowly. I am so impressed with these lovely vines, fingers crossed they will survive the winter? Any tips for keeping them alive during the winter would be greatfully recieved, I live in the uk and my zone is 8b.
