winter conditions
Shop around for your appartment. I found one with a back and side yard so be encouraged. Remember that you don't have to keep these trees warm just at 32 degrees. Make a place for them next to the apt. as jay suggests and then run a couple of heat tape strips the kind that keep pipes from freezing under the pots. Jse straw for insulation. Put plastic over them, there has got to be an answer. Look at it like this, it is all about taking care of your trees and this is just another aspect of that care. Look for ways to addapt. I have had as many as 1,000 trees in the back yard of my appt. Currently I am down to about 400 and yes for an appartment I have a big yard but much smaller than a house. You will be supprised at how much bonsai and pontensai you can fit into the yard of an appt.
sincerely
