I’ve got a 3 year old Chicago hardy fig that has survived my zone 7 winters in a large container. Great variety.

I lost everything here with the Texas freezes. All container figs grown from cuttings. Various kinds from figbid.com. my landlord made me remove my greenhouse and my wife refused to let me bring in the more valuable cuttings during the freezes. Such a bummer, and I hate starting over, but there is still hope!
Just planted one that cam tolerate temperatures down to -10°C.
