Fig survival
We uncovered our fig
trees today and were
relieved to see signs of life.
I'd say if they can survive
the extreme cold of this past Winter then they can make it through
anything.

So far, I haven't found any signs on my fig--what did you find?

mine, too, after all!
Just ran down to check--and the short sprout has 2 fair-size leaves! The whole rest of it seems dead, but there must be some life in it after all!

Life!
Mom --- Yep, that's what I found. But mine are just tiny buds that I had to peer close to see. I thought the trees might really be fully dead this time, but it looks like they'll come back from the base once again!
