Default Re: Anyone grow Kru?

Ouch - I've yet to overwinter my Kru - I was thinking of just wrapping it with burlap and bubble-wrap layers but I may opt for the hay-and-chickenwire method. Has anyone overwintered these guys outside with wrapping successfully in Zone 8 or above? Our winters are mild, but the occasional arctic blast can chill things out for a few days...

Be well,
Mike
