Checking on my trees a few weeks ago, I noticed nothing happening. No leafs, no growth nada. I scratched the bark and no green. I had 4 trees that would've given me figs this year, but they are dead and gone. Sigh, the winters have been rough. I pulled out my largest tree with no effort. The roots were gone. The others pretty much the same. I did put them in the fig burial ground just in case. But I think they're done. Maybe next year. I have small ones that were started this winter indoors. I guess I'll buy the dried ones from nuts.com.

Bummer! I know the feelingJust when you think your tree is going to have a nice crop......BAM! Disaster strikes! If it's not the cold then it's critter damage. Even with protection I lost a few new trees this past winter. It was just plain ""too cold"".
Baby your new trees with TLC and maybe you'll get at least a few fresh figs to enjoy.

Thanks for the support guys..
I do have a shed, but it's soooooo old and creaky. I'm am too scared to go in there.. I'm afraid of what's lurking inside. LOL! But I guess that is where they will have to be. Some of the smaller ones may become winter house plants..
