Oak Summit Nursery · Southern Manitoba

winter gardening, I was going to wait for things to warm up but looks like winter is here. lifting apple bench grafts after a warm fall followed by snow and cold snap. usually I would be lifting these after the leaves are all dropped, but check the forecast and the temp graph photos, looks like snow is here to stay until the ground freezes some time in the next week. second year lifting bare root trees in the fall, happy I have the new root cellar for these to store in. I now wonder how often I’ll be doing this in the snow! a very canadian experience.. #backyardnursery
