[IBC] Winter LIght
Obviously junipers and pines need their light in the
winter. But deciduous trees which are starting or have already lost their leaves do they need any winter light? Also how about winter flowering species like winter jasmine and prunus mume. And how about evergreens like evergreen pears and boxwood. Thanks Ben __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!

I don't think so - at least not in zone 7. When the temp. is below 40F there is no growth going on, hence no need for photosynthesis. I use a deep cold frame in which little light gets in. I leave it open until the beginning of Jan., then close it on only the coldest days. The trees do just fine.
