Question about Alma

[Erick]

I've read in different places about this variety. I know that it does good in the south but I'm in zone 6b. I was wondering who has this fig in a zone close to mine and how it does. If it needs more heat I could put it in the greenhouse until it gets warm.. Thanks

The mature Alma at Petals from the Past in Zone 8 suffered a pretty good amount of freeze damage this past year. Temps in the low teens.
