Thanks a lot, do i keep watering them?
They will use almost no water at this time of year so their watering needs will be next to nothing. Just make sure they don't dry out bone dry... and make sure they don't stay saturated wet. For the most part, my cold hardy trees just sit out on the bench and I do nothing to them all winter. If we have a week of dry weather I might check just to make sure they aren't completely drying out, and if so might give them a light watering. But don't overdo it.

Thanks a lot for your wisdom! I will keep an eye on them, really looking forward to spring!

Oh whoah!

Your first post!?!?

Sorry, more coffee necessary. 🤪

*Clears throat*

Greetings, wayward stranger! Welcome to our particular clearing of the "TinyForest". I assume the smoke signals assisted your navigation. Or maybe it was the rhythmic pounding of drums, present in the hypnotic hymns of the Woody Dwarves (Pa-Is).

Either way, we will chuck a bale of papaver straw on the fire, and fill a goblet of Ayahuasca, in honor of your arrival.

This place is a wonderful, communal library, filled with knowledge and experience.

Read what you need...

When you are ready, start filling your own shelves.

Pleasure to make your acquaintance!
