Hi all. I have a Japanese red maple seeding that a friend gave me from her garden. It's growing beautifully in a pot on my deck at the moment. It's approx. 12 - 15" tall with a trunk smaller round than a pencil.
What should I do with it? I'm afraid that if I plant it the snow will snap it like the twig it is.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
Lora B.

You might try the Japanese maple forum for further advice, but based on other posts I've seen over there I think in your zone you'll be best off keeping it indoors, in the garage, etc for the winter vs planting it out now.

Thanks. That's what I was thinking but needed confirmation from better heads than mine.
I'll repost in the other forum just in case.
