Should I bring my fig trees indoors? I'm in Phoenix, AZ.?
I found figs do best if they are planted into the ground. If your winter temps don't drop below 10 degrees F, they will do well outdoors. If they are in pots, you will have to protect the roots from freezing. If the figs are dormant (no leaves), put them into a protected spot like an unheated garage. If you bring them indoors where the temperature is warm (consistently above 60 degrees F), then the figs may come out of dormancy which may be bad since the leaves will be harmed if exposed to freezing weather. It won't hurt to pot up the small fig except that it may be harder to plant it later.
