Hi Dot,
The plant you are talking about is not a pelargonium. It sounds like a
Brugmansia. Confirm my judgment if those flowers hang down about twelve
inches, flower for many months and are sometimes scented, especially on warm
nights. The leaves are large and velvety.
Yes, it will take going down to the twenties, will get cut back when it does
but usually recovers. There are varieties also in red, yellow and creamy
white.
Stay in from the cold!
