I tell my students to pot up their grafted trees and treat them like house 
plants if the weathers too cold to put them outside.

Good luck,
Little John

A question for you all:

I have been asked to lead a class on heritage apples for a permaculture group 
who hale from in and around Spokane, and to give them a chance to try their 
own grafts. My concern is that the class is to be held February 23 - weeks 
before the ground thaws in this part of the country. 

How best to handle bench grafts several weeks before the ground is likely to 
thaw? We will us Mm111 root stock.

Thank you,

Dave Liezen, E. WA, zone 6

For storing a lot of bench grafted trees in one spot: we leave them in
moist saw dust on their side in a humid and cold, but not freezing. Stacked
very loosely in a box. Much like you might store rootstocks.  Of course,
just remember to be EXTRA careful with those graft unions.
