You brought back memories of my fig buddies on Long Island; they told stories about their Italian grandfathers wrapping their trees in overcoats. I never wrapped my trees in the DC area; I did cage one I took to Akron. Didn't help. Dead to the roots but came back and finally flowered her 3rd season. I'll check out youtube. Thanks.
