great to hear i NO dwarfs and not seen any other then a few sights. i bet you will have a great time and get great advice at the meeting. all mine stay in pots at this time to many freeze/frost where im at. i might have to change that when my newest to my collection get big?? i just hate trying to cover due to most the time with the long freeze temps i get wind that uncover everything i lost a lot of things over the year because i have built frames around things and covered and put lights in to keep warm but i dont have time to do all that every year wheww.i find shipping is relatively easy i do a lot and from my experience i ship bare root with 90 % of leaves cut off. some plants if yng & tender i wrap the roots with damp paper. if they are dorm it they are much easier to ship
take care and good luck
