Thanks guys, container growing is a bit harder than in the ground , but with us having a house in France and a short stay here it's not worth buying a place here too. So container gardening is my way to go. As to the Winter question , well I'll be build two Hoophouse's in the back next month . One normal six of seven foot ceiling one about 11 ft . I hope to just keep plants alive but not growing much in the larger space. In the smaller space I'll keep the heat levels up and try to get some growth for next Spring. I'll put a fan heater in both spaces to keep conditions at 50 f or above. I'll expand the collection for next year and then I guess I better just work on getting fruit. When we leave all the plants will be up for new homes with members here. Mostly I'll give them away , perhaps sell the odd rare one. I guess people will need a truck to take the giants in 25 gallon pots. And then I get to start all over again in a different part of the World, crazy I know but that's our life.
Later
Steve
