名媛直播

I have had this tree for 1 year. I bought it last spring. I have always kept it outside in full sun. I watered it when it needed it. I fertilized it once a month. It was growing rapidly and was very happy in the warm months. I made the mistake of not reading up about my tree before winter arrived. I was given VERY poor advice about winter dormancy and was told it would be just fine as long as it did not get snow covered and I could keep it outside. I live in the US in Minnesota. This is a northern state and it can get extremely cold here. Temperatures got to -20 degrees F. Which is around -23.3 Celcius for reference (according to a googled conversion calculator). My tree sat in the pot it is currently in all winter long with no cover or anything protecting the roots at all. It was on my porch all winter so it was not covered in snow at all and did not get direct sunlight in the winter months. However, I am certain that the roots froze. I feel very horrible and regret being a lazy and irresponsible tree owner. My question is. Judging by the photos, is my tree dead? Is there any hoping of it surviving? I am willing to do whatever it takes to revive it, if at all possible. Please be gentle, as this is my first tree. I realize I have made a horrible mistake.

What kind of tree is this? Most trees (except tropical ones) are fine freezing over the winter. In fact, with some, not having a freezing dormancy would kill it. When you bought it, were the leaves greener?

It is a Juniper. Yes, when I bought it, it was much greener.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this Juniper has been dead for some time, Junipers keep their foliage green for quite some time when they die, to the point that when it shows you this brown color, it's long gone.

Don't be too hard on yourself, losing a tree hurts, but sometimes it's just part of the learning process.
Even the best 名媛直播 artists have already lost trees. So keep your head up, take the lesson and go for it.

I was afraid of that. Thank you. Lesson learned! On to my next tree!

I dont know much about US climates. But I know many swedes emigrated to minesota due to the similarities to swedish climate.

I grow junipers in Sweden and I am totally sure that they can go with solid frozen roots for 2 months. Next time trying, put it on the ground and make sure it is completely covered in snow in winter. Best protection ever and totally natural.
