[IBC] over-wintering Japanese maple
Hi Shireen,
So, you're in Baltimore, in an apartment(?), but you have someplace you could over-winter your Acers p. in the ground. Understand that I don't suffer the cold you will, but I have to think that ANYTHING is preferable to keeping your tree(s) in the fridge. I've watched the 'cold-care' posts here for years, and there are ways --and then there are ways-- do make winter survival work. Your fridge has to be a last resort. So . . . rather than tell you what I think you should do, let me appeal to all of those IBCer's who actually LIVE in the cold to help you. Okay, so I think burying and mulching is probably best; Iris may tell you to cover with a rose cone also; others may say use a stryo ice chest - outside - ; but surely someone will come up with something that will work for you. And, folks should NOT forget the seasonal care guides on the IBC website. These provide solid info on wintering your trees.
