That is indeed my experience too. I kept my chili plants in our sunhouse
in the automn, and the first slight frost outside (which still means something
like 5 centidegrees in our sunhouse) killed all plants except my tepins.
Moreover, my main problem with overwintering seems to be pests. I need
to spray a lot of insecticide on the plants if I want to keep them in
the house.
