Guest guest Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Hi Everybody: Sadhaka Haranandinatha has done some more wonderful research for us. Here is the email I received from him today. IT confirms my sense to go ahead and try to plant trees in snowy climates. Allow seedlings to get quite large and hardy before doing so. Covering during severe winter. I would like to report that there are some sprouts coming up in my rudraksha pot. I don't know if its rudraksha or a resurrected Impatiens that used to live in that pot that died ! Both are miraculous. Everyone who I show the sprouts to can't figure out what they are as they are so small. Will keep you all posted :-) Countless Blessings to all Rudraksha farmers in the present moment and of the Future :-) Om Namah Shivaya Kanti (email below) Namaste, The Elaeocarpus family grows best in zones 9B to 11. They are tropical/subtropical trees found from Mauritius to India through to Indonesia and throughout the Pacific Islands. The Elaeocarpus dentatus (Japanese Blueberry) is found in Korea and Japan in places where the winter freeze is brief. There are rudraksha trees growing in Nepal up to 3,600 feet elevation. I understand that a few are growing in Katmandhu. Obviously they can take a little bit of snow. But we don't have any personal experience telling us about growing them in snow. Let me know if you come across any good information about this. Thanks Sadhaka Haranandinatha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
