Hi Tom
You , I believe, said that Isabella was one of the last varieties you have
to shut down completely.
If I understood you correctly, suggest you take cuttings in mid Dec, or if
we have a forecast of -10C or colder do it that day- keep a flashlight
nearby. Have you stored cuttings before for a long period?
Waiting for your cuttings needs for this coming spring .
Cheers                         Bert
