[IBC] Fridge for a large bonsai

I have a larch thats about 4-5 feet tall. Does anyone know of a glass
front fridge with digital temperature control. So that i can give it
its seasons out in LA.

Crazy idea yes but i love the tree and can't give it up.

Thanks
Ben Griffin

I'd talk to Dale Cochoy about how his larch reacted to being in Florida for
a show this may.

Then, you can send the tree to me ;-)

I use a regular refrigerator during the winter months to assure sufficient
dormancy for my five needle pine. I keep the temperature at abut 34 to 35
degrees F and at that temperature they don't require any light (therefore
no need for a glass door).

Re: [IBC] Fridge for a large bonsai

We have one in our facility that was a Coke display case, probably
from a mini market. Why not check out sources in LA for Rest., mini marts, or
even used stuff. I know that our Sam's has some of these things.
Google "beverage display case"

I have not found it necessary for either and the plants only need watering
about every month or so.
