It depends on the temperature at the window and the plant. Tropical plants can’t take cold temperatures. An evergreen might be able to take colder temperatures. Drafty windows are worse. You have to look at the recommended temperature range for each plant.

Yes! Make sure to follow that. Press the back of your fingers on the window for a minute or two. If it starts to burn because of the cold- DEFINITELY take your plants away. Even if it barely burns, but still does. And yes, I do mean a cold kind of burn

My plants have been fine as long as their leaves are not touching the windows!

I used to have a studio with very drafty windows. Using window insulation wrap kits made both me and my plants happier 😌
