By indoor, that means one that will grow outdoors during the summer and indoors only when the weather gets close to freezing. The best type for that is a Ficus (except for edible fig). Choose one at a nursery that sells houseplants. If you want an outdoor tree, start with a juniper, but this means it stays outside all the time, except for a day or two on display. It is kept in a cold but more sheltered location in the winter. Iris, Central NY, Zone 5a, Sunset Zone 40 "If we see light at the end of the tunnel, It's the light of the oncoming train." Robert Lowell (1917-1977) |
