Storing nan-hardy plants in a fridge

From: "Abrimaal Svartvinter" <abrimaal at o2.pl> on 2004.12.03 at 02:35:52(12454) Hello, I live in zone 6 equivalent in Europe. I have some tubers and seeds (some germinated last Summer some didn't yet) which are not hardy in my country e.g. Dracunculus vulgaris and some mediterranean Arum. So I keep them for Winter in a refrigerator in pots with soil. Should I keep them dry or water occasionally?

Dracuncullus and Arum are wintergrowing species they are starting to grow around this time of year and die down in the spring early summer. I would see water occasionally and place them in a sunny spot.
