Thanks Sandi...Yes.. Nancy has been by here ... with the roof gardeners group... [ you should make another NYC trip and visit again ] yes to keep them off the roof and out of the wind... that should take care of any zone two plants... the worst foe in roof top overwintering ... is the heat of the late winter sun... heating up the plants enough to start the fluids going up... only to have them freeze again come night fall.. shattering the cell walls of the cells where the fluids had gone.. the worst... that's why I like the foam containers... not only do they keep it cool in the summer ... but it also keeps it cool in the winter.. and doesn't allow that sun I mentioned to heat up the root balls..
I hear it isg etting warmer
