Default Re: Overwintering

Yeah, I know the leaves are goners here in Michigan for the winter but I was just suggesting the C-9 lights for enigma 99 with the tree in California for a cold snap just to give it some warmth until it passed.

As for mine, I am leaving mine in the ground and mulching with straw and then filling trash bags with dry leaves and placing them around the trunk, weighing them down with a brick and filling the space around the trunk with more leaves and THEN covering the whole thing with a tarp to keep it dry. We have plenty of leaves. What do you think? Thanx in advance for your input! Any other Michiganders out there with experience?
I have lots to learn. ;-)
