Proximity to the house causes less fluctuation in temps? Less wind (though considerably more than indoors?) I'd still think dormancy (or whatever its called that an evergreen needs) requirements could be met on a ledge. My trees are right next to my house on benches (2-by and cement blocks) but I'd tend to think they have enough exposure to get them into/thru dormancy.

Could you clarify? Are you saying that the tree(s) won't be exposed enough?
