I know some people in your zone grow them outdoors, and bend them to the
ground and cover them for winter.  When I lived in zone 6/7 my fig tree
bounced back from freezes down to 0 degrees.

Subject: [NAFEX] Wild Fig

'Ello, All!
     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
Perception
