Chris,
I have always lost mine to white fly infestations over the winter. Whatever your chosen method to treat for these types of insects, be thorough before bringing it in, and vigilant throughout the winter.

I have a small bay laurel that started at about 8" this spring,
but has now grown into a 2' shrub.

I'd like to try overwintering it here in zone 5b, but I have
no experience with them.  From what I've read online they can
be very tempermental, too.

I'm guessing they need a south-facing window, adequate water,
and occasional misting.  We have radiant heat, so it's not as
dry as it could be.

Does anyone have any tips?

Thanks,

Chris
