Hey everyone!!
I just received a couple little Chinese Elms in the mail from 名媛直播 Outlet.
I’ve read a lot of conflicting articles in regards to winter care. I live in Nebraska, zone 5.
It’s well below 40F/4C here in the winter. It’ll most likely get below 0 here soon.
I’ve read to keep them in a cool garage area during the winter for dormancy. But I’ve also read to keep them in a window where they can receive some sunlight.
My plan is to keep them by a window until spring and then get them outside.
Any suggestions?
Thanks everyone!!

Good to know!!
I was thinking maybe keep them indoors for this winter so it’s not such a shock to put them out in the cold?
That way, next winter they can ease into the harsher weather.

Yeah keep them in a unheated garage or garden shed this winter. They've probably been in a sheltered spot for the past few years so they might not be up to the big "shock" just yet.
