One of my 5 year old potted fig trees just began leafing out this week. Glad I didn't give up on it. I am in Ontario, near Toronto and my trees were kept in my unheated garage all winter. Fig1.jpg

Me too.  My Lattarula and Capelas finally leafed out July 2.
Interesting enough they have a couple of brebas on them.  My other trees stored in the same location have been growing since May although a little behind they are doing well.

Maybe I should have waited a little longer on my Lattarula, but it put out a shoot from the roots which is doing extremely well. The branches were dry and very rust colored so I cut it right back.

I just looked and my Noire de Barbatane is sending out dormant buds and turning green, this morning they weren't, I was expecting suckers since the roots were growing but I will take it for sure, the noire de caromb, I know it's alive but I don't think I will keep it if it hasn't leafed out by the time the garlic is harvested, I am pretty sure I will toss it.

Here is my Dads Hardy Chicago.

Can't believe it's still alive.
