I would except I did that last year with lilacs and an apple tree and had a
terrible time with powdery mildew, lack of light and low humidity. I really
hope to have that sunroom added on this year so this won't be a problem next
year. (I know I said that last year, for those who will remember, I have 1/2 a
new kitchen instead! :-D ) Of course... I could stop buying plants I don't have
time or space to plant... Nah!!!
