Hi All
Hope your 2009 started better than mine......
I've been forced to take a job in another "town", actually a mining town in the middle of nowhere.
Search for Rosh Pinah on Google Earth if you don't believe me
I don't know what the USDA zone for the Hell is, but I guess I'll be in that one.
I've given away 2/3 of my pre-bonsai and most of my normal plants, the few left are my children...
At this stage I have serious doubts whether I can fit more that 2-3 of the small ones in my car for the 900km trip, the rest + 4 remaining bigger trees will have to go into foster care......
I figured I would just use cling wrap to hold the soil in place just incase, but I couldn't help but wonder about 8-9 hours the trees will spend inside the airconditioned car.......can't be good for them?
They'll have to adapt to about 5 C higher max temps (40C easily) and cold winters with occasional winter rains that drift up from SA's Cape Province......but my main concerns is the AC.
AC kills my sinusses......how about my trees?!?!?!?
Thanks
Gerhard
