Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

very cool! Perhaps a 'tube' is needed over it from Nov 20 through Feb?

Protection with a wire cage & poly wrap.......very easy.

Nice idea Tim, specially if the tube is adjustable. Since they are planted under the soffet and do not get wet they should be hardened off going into winter. Our cold temps usually start in Jan - Feb. However, the size these things grow it will not get covered for long.
