Default [IBC] Why Mulch ??

Thanks Jim.
I'll keep it inside this year and give it some dormancy next winter.
Hopefully it'll survive this winter and turn into a healthy tree by next
summer.

Subject: [IBC] Why Mulch ??

in September, I found that a great deal of the roots where

rotting because
of the poor soil, drainage and over watering. Since repotting,

it has
produced lots of new leaves that seem very happy. I haven't

seen a yellow
leaf since. I'm reluctant to let it suffer through a winter

because of the
late repotting, weak root system and lack of leaves.


I'd probably vote to keep this one inside.
