I have a large bottle tree that keeled over recently after we got some significant rainfall. The ground got a little too swampy causing the tree to fall over. Even though the tree has a good staking system, it's still top heavy with all the bottles. I would think placing individual bottles on curved rebar would be more stable. I think I'm going to try this if you don't mind me stealing your idea :)Allyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07430849998788960134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7929448677986593408.post-30122864086816346932015-03-02T22:39:06.089-06:002015-03-02T22:39:06.089-06:00Anonymous, your plants should be fine as long as t...Anonymous, your plants should be fine as long as they were not actively growing in an artificially warm environment just prior to planting. If they were dormant and adjusted to the cold, they should be fine.

All of the school kids are unhappy about the possibility of a third day at home. I am hoping for my second at home because I don't want to drive in the stuff with all the crazy people on the road.Michael - Plano Prairie Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10288991916201553454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7929448677986593408.post-84436892003936422262015-02-24T16:12:46.791-06:002015-02-24T16:12:46.791-06:00Wow.

This is why I was so frustrated with the run of warmer than usual days we had just prior to now. All the early bloomers started firing off and are paying the price today, though here just south of Austin things are hovering at the freezing mark without threat of further precipitation. Stay safe and warm!<br />TexasDebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11214888876514137890noreply@blogger.com
