Inground LSU Purple & Celeste (L,R) both broke bud today in Birmingham. Happy to see very little frost damage: a few little scrubby bits that experienced die-back needed to come off anyway. Cross your fingers, kids! A great year for figs has begun.

 

Nice to see. I am 3 hrs north of you. My 4 year old Celeste and hardy Chicago planted against a south facing brick wall appear to be killed back to the ground. Stop global cooling!

Sorry, Bill.  Congratulations, Rick.  Way too early to know anything here.

severe tip damage here in Atlanta.

C'mon spring !

Few brebas pushing out here in the uk.

Your last frost date is still a month away. Way too early. Unprotected you will see damage before then. I usually have frost damage in the spring in Pensacola. Just sets the tree back a little.
