Default [IBC] Root purining with a hatchet!

Hallo All:

We got an icestorm last Friday and the little bonsai friends are still
covered with about half an inch of that stuff. I was hoping to be well into
my pruning schedule by now. They only came out the root cellar/woodchip mulch
ten days ago and the wood chip mess was still frozen until last week Monday.
Last expected frost for the lower SW corner of Michigan is 3 weeks away.
Guess we will skip spring like we have done the last 2 years.

Well, you could be subjecting your trees to the Chinese WATER
torture, like we are down here! :-(

inches (since 11 p.m. last night) -- and rising. I keep feeling
under my jaw line for the beginnings of gills, as in some sort of
reverse evolution.
