I live in Richmond, and have three figs in ground..they survived but pretty much lose the older wood and grow from the bottom. Did you have to protect yours in winter?<br /><br />Thanks-LisaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389038925487522743.post-70284157901718178162013-12-17T19:29:19.966-05:002013-12-17T19:29:19.966-05:00Hi Vic,

The regular bird nest didn't protect my figs so I sewed *some screen mesh to protect them. They worked great and no bee can stink or eat my figs...not much flies either. I only start wrapping the figs once they start to swell and change color...(about to ripe). I think I got the screen mesh from homedepot where they sell then in a roll. I used a larger needle for the yarn and sewed the sizes together and leave an open where I can pull on the yarn and close it so nothing can get in. If you're lazy to sew, then use a stabler to stable the sizes together. I'm planning to make more next year for all my figs and also protect other fruits.Kristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16298120337495513348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389038925487522743.post-78612378629680043722013-09-11T18:33:07.212-04:002013-09-11T18:33:07.212-04:00HI,
