Richo Cech –
This is a high desert species but not usually as high as 7000 feet. The potted trees are pretty adaptable–you might have trouble trying to grow it in the ground. r

Richo Cech –
hi christina, 9b is good for joshua tree. it wouldn’t be cold that would hold it up, rather moisture, too much of which can be fatal to them. provide sun, fast-draining soil and protect from rain. r
