Default Re: Best cultivars for storage

My 1st year overwintering my Basjoo seemed fatal in the spring when I uncovered it but it grew back with four stems to about six ft. tall before frost here in Indiana. I cut out one stem and potted it mid summer for an experiment. I winterized differently this fall in hopes of a larger plant in 2013, check out my photos. All summer I watered near daily and used Miracle Grow every 3rd or so watering, it grew nicely. Good luck and I think down where you are you should have no problem overwintering Basjoo.
