I have several trees that are small and need some growing
before going into
a bonsai pot. I have read that the ground would be the best
place to plant
them but there's some that I can't leave out in the garden over
the winter.
Can I put those in oversized wooden boxes (screen bottom)
filled with garden
soil and set them in the garden? Then I can lift them out and
store them
over the winter. Will this have the same effect on growth? Or
do I plant
them in the ground in Spring and dig them up in Fall?


The boxes will be fine. A bit slower, but fine.
