Mr. Devaux,

I wish I had read your post on japanese maple hardiness earlier (http://forum.bonsaitalk.com/f7/impo...aple-10143.html)

It seems like there is a fine line between sound Winter care and over-babying palmatums. Did I misread your article, or did you say that some of your palmatums survived, and indeed, did better with less protection? Is this the motivation behind your advice to get the tree out of my apartment and into the cold?
