Overwintering Potted Bird's Nest Spruce: Heel In Outdoors

Garage vs. Deck vs. Ground

3 bird's nest spruce in pots. Moving in spring. Garage over winter? Deck better?

Best Method: Heel In

Dig holes in sheltered yard spot. Plunge pots in ground. Mulch heavily. Roots insulated, tops harden naturally. Easy spring lift.

Why Not Garage or Deck

  • Garage: dark = decline if too long.
  • Deck: pots freeze = root kill.
