My tree is in Pennsylvania, and I understand it has to be covered for the winter. I actually have it potted at the moment as it is small and I took it from my parents home in August. It appears to be doing very well but now I think I should plant it and I want to know exactly what to do to keep this in our family. I want to know about pest control and any kind of furtilizer that would help this small tree thru the winter months. Please help. Thank .you Debby
