I'm a long-time gardener but new to bonsai. I picked up a seedling of Henry's Hornbeam, and am keeping it outside, and watering when the pot feels light, which is how I water almost all my houseplants. (be interested in knowing how the bonsai experts feel about that method of determining water needs).
My zone is high 5, maybe 6, and the hornbeam is rated hardy for zone 6. I am trying to plan ahead, thinking about how to overwinter this tree. I realize, with the beautiful spring weather we are having, that this sounds kind of nuts!
I have an unattached shed, which keeps the wind and weather out, but not the cold (nor the mice).
I also have a cellar which gets down to the high 40s, but not much lower.
any advice?
thanks
