If they are still small pots I would bring them in. If larger wrap the pots in bubble wrap to insulate them. They should be OK unless it gets really cold..

Stupid question probably, but how does the plant "breathe" if it's in bubble wrap?  Do you have to remove the wrap during the day or is it just put on loosely in the first place?

Sorry, just around the container to stop the soil freezing. You can wrap the top with fleece if you think it will be really cold... but just being in a g/house or Poly should be enough.
;D
