Sitting high pressure system. Bonsai on the move
It has become kind of a "tradition". With a winter fighting tooth and nails with the first initial signs of spring in the air I have changed again from a bonsai grower to a bonsai carrier. The ones who keep their trees in frost free zones know quite well what I am talking about.
With temperatures that are in my frost free storage well in the red section of a thermometer for last couple of weeks most of the trees stored there show first signs of a new life...
Well, luckily most of my trees are still sleeping well protected in their winter beds scattered all over our backyard. Neverthless some of the trees those in my view a bit more vulnerable by harsh winter ( heavy bending, late summer airlayering, special cuttings etc ) are stored in the frost free area.
That means only one single simple thing. I should move them out every day with temperatures above zerro and bring them back for frosty nights. With this damned high pressure system well seated above Europe it seems there will be a lot of traffic till mid? March...
