[IBC] Wintering my boxwoods and other stuff - Zone 7
Question 5: Where ARE you? We cannot advise until we know where you live and how cold it gets there. I am in Nashville, TN which i think is Zone 7, hence the title on my post. Yup. I should read a little closer; shows how much subjects count for, I guess. Winter low temps here average around 20 degrees with a January sometimes getting down to the 'teens and on unusual years as low as 0 but that's rare. Boxwoods don't need that much protection in Zone 7. Here in the chilly end of 8, I keep mine on the table all winter, giving them NO protection. On coldest nights, you might just mulch tree and pot in under a pile of oak leaves.
