I have some of that species from Dr. Parmar, and even though I'm in zone 7b 8a (we have had lows only in the 20's the last two winters) they freeze to the ground every year when my regular figs aren't hurt.

I have 4 wild figs, ficus palmeri, that I have grown from seeds
obtained from Deep Diversity, a now defunct non-profit organization that
was a part of Seeds of Change.  I live in Saint Louis, Missouri, which
some maps show as on the border of zones 5 and 6 and some show as zone 6.
I was wondering if these would survive outdoors or if I will need to
bring them indoors every winter?  Any recommendations would be greatly
appreciated.
Thank you for your time.  Have a Good One!  Love, Peace and
