This is what i have to do now,because for the last 2 years my tree's have suffered a lot of damage, because the low temps for the last two winters dipped down to -3 degrees,This is the first time in the last 11 years that i have to cover these tree's or shal i say bushes. As you can see these were large tree's till i had to cut them down, mainly because they are getting too big and beeing froze-out too.

Currently i am growing:Hardy chicago(for over 25 years),Magnolia(don't know which),Desert king,Negronne,lsu gold,sal c,Osborn pro,and a couple others in total about 9. The last 6 are rather small.
While i am at it i like to ask the forum: If you have a very small figtree in a pot growing this past summer do it need a dorment period,right now it is in rather warm workshop. Should i take it to my insulated,unheated garage.

My tree's are all about 9 feet tall and 10 feet wide. i have 9 tree's full size,scattered all over the hill amongs a lot of asian persimmon and a diverse group of paw paw's.I am just now trying to cover them up because i like to harden them up a bit more before i cover them up with leaves. I do believe that it is enough for my area(6b).I use to grow them with multy trunks,4 or 5,but they are getting too tall(had to use 6 foot ladder),not for me.
