An orange tree. Yeah, that's what I need. Gotta start me an arctic orange grove.
Now that sounds interesting.
We had really cold weather starting in late November and lasting till Xmas,
where it stayed below freezing the majority of that time. I had 2 tubs of
water plants left out and a bonsai Russian Olive tree. I noted yesterday
that the water parsley, corkscrew, & iris are still alive in the tubs. I'm
quite sure those tubs froze solid. The Russian Olive looks like it has buds
on the bark. To think all those years of going thru the bother of digging
it in weren't necessary. :-) ~ jan
