Apple tree in pot?
Hi everyone,
I have a couple questions. I've been growing an apple tree I started from seed in a pot for several months. It's still pretty small, maybe 4 inches tall, but it has lots of small leaves on it. Should I put it in a bigger pot, or has its growth been stunted for some other reason? It's still really small-looking for the pot it's in (a 6 inch pot, I believe.) Also, what's the best route to go about overwintering it? I have a few months, yet, but I don't think it's going to get much bigger and I wouldn't want it to die if I put it in the ground. Can I just keep it inside and hope for the best (I've had plants die over the winter indoors, possibly from lack of sufficient light?), or is there something else I could do? I'm not really sure if this is the right place for these questions, so if not, could someone direct me to the appropriate group? Many thanks in advance! Patrick |

Dogwoods like full shade.
