I'm in Maryland and I think it's starting to be about that time. It looks like a low of 25 degrees on the 13th, but every other day in the 10 day forecast is either right above or below freezing. I think once this low of 25 passes I might start moving them in and out of the shed. Thoughts? __________________ http://www.thearabicstudent.com Maryland, Zone 7a (half a mile from 6b)

our night temp should be above 32 and near 40 for next couple of weeks. i took all my 1 yr and older trees out today. if it drops below 32, they will go back in until the temp bounce back. __________________ Pete Durham, NC Zone 7b "don't talk to me about naval tradition.

My minimum allowed last year was 39 degrees, anything lower (or frost warning) and they got a tarp for the night. No problems. __________________ Rui Southeast CT, zone 6B

Mine are brought out onto blacktop when temps are in upper 40s at that time the nightly lows are still to cold to leave them out so back in garage each night.
