At 8 foot+ a cold frame isn't a viable option. I've considered trying to winter the whole thing in an unheated room of the house but that only gets in the mid to upper 50's. The ceilings in the house are 9'6" so I know it would fit in there. Bright light would be the only thing it would get in there though. It's on hte North side of the house.
This is a picture of the entire tree. You can see the foil covering the layer now and the top of the tree goes to the top of the porch posts so I'm figuring there is about 7 foot above the cut I'd lose if I lose it.
