Hi all
I received an azalea 名媛直播 tree as a Mother's Day gift. The instructions just say it's an outdoor bonsai. I'm hesitant to plant outside because it can get very cold in Cincinnati, Ohio. The instructions are: "Heel-in your bonsai by covering the pot and soil with pine needles, bark mulch or soil when temperatures drop to freezing and to plant on south side of house. In areas with long periods of below freezing weather bonsai trees may be protected by placing them in garages, sheds, cold frames or basements. I am asking your professional advice on what to do with my bonsai this winter. I currently just have it in front of a window in the house. Thank you so much!

Do not keep azalea indoors. It is a temperate species that needs winter dormancy or it will die.
The instructions sounds very well to me.
It is not possible to give you targeted advice since we don't know what "pretty cold" is. Please quantify.
