If I root plants now, what would I do with them if they 'work'?

This might be a ridiculous question, but I have been reading this thread and am getting all excited for propagating by cuttings. I would like to get started with a few things, let's say hydrangea and scarlet verbena for our hypothetical discussion.

My question is, if I start this now, they grow roots within a couple of weeks, what will I do with these young plants when the weather turns cold? Treat them as houseplants? Just protect them outside by making a little homemade coldframe-thing or ??? What do you do when your little cuttings are reading to leave the nest?

Thank you for any advice & ideas.
