Default Re: planting basjoo a foot deeper?

sounds like a very good plan for the UK the ground only freezes down a few inches deep.

Jack, the ground temp does vary a fair bit, this effect lessens until you get down below about 10M deep when you will get to a steady 10/12C (in germany at least). I have a graph somewhere.
