: We pick wild elderberries each year to make jelly and I've grown some plants from last year's seeds. They are doing quite well...about a foot tall now. My question: Do I need to protect them from below freezing temperatures? They are in a pot, not in the ground.
Thanks.
MARIE: It would be a good idea to plunge the pot into the ground for the winter so damage from freezing temps do not harm the root system. MVG Plant Dr.
