This year I indulged in a number of conifer seedlings and young trees, but last winter this zone 6 garden took a beating. So I am digging my very first Alpine House to overwinter the pots as safely as possible. Although the largest pots of the most sturdy trees will go directly into the ground, something more is needed for the smallest and most tender plants. What do you think of this? It is only started, but I thought I'd share. Perhaps it is Rosemary's Folly to think zone 6 plants can overwinter in zone 6 this way. Please show what you do to overwinter conifers outdoors in northern gardens.
