Apparently my nettle starts I apparently ordered in my sleep deprived manic research stupor last weekend (generally don't remember but upon re-researchjng the stuff I ordered it all seems pretty sound so go me I guess?) showed up either Friday or Saturday. Our mailbox is way down the road so I didn't even think about checking it with the snow and I had no idea they existed till yesterday, much less had arrived. #1 just got the mail and brought me a bubble mailer, so I guess we will see if they survived in the mailbox in the sub freezing temps.
don't really have much space for a tree so I may have to bonsai it and keep it indoors. We have a fairly large Japanese maple out back and I've got a dwarf cherry tree I planted out front this summer and thats pretty much all I got tree space wise.
