I'm Stratified
Howdy,
I was thinking about getting a VFT to put outside, year-round. But first, I want to make sure that my plan would work.
Here's my situation.
I live in Illinois, and the winters get pretty cold, and sometimes can get below Zero. I would be using the Tray-method, and would have the plant in direct sun. When it starts to cool down, I would place the plant in a rubber-maid tub, and keep it slightly watered.
The other possible scenario follows, I would keep the plant in the same situayion as above, but instead of the rubbermaid trub method, i'd bury the plant's put underground, and place leaves on-tops of the plant, as soon as the weather starts to chill.
Which one would you recommend? Are there any other possibilities? (I don't think my garage gets sufficient light)
Thanks for your input, and time!
