Not leafing out - is it alive?

Hi All,

We are in zone 6a/pittsburgh, PA. My fig was kept in the garage over winter while dormant (did not water or check soil), weather has been pretty good here and the tree has been out for 6 weeks or so. I have not seen any growth yet this season, there are some bud tips, but also a few dried up woody looking tips. I scratched the trunk surfaced an there is still green, if that means its still alive.

The tree didn't produce fruit last year either :) We repotted last year

I am so sad, when purchased it was established at 4ft and beared fruit 2 yrs ago, not sure what I am doing wrong

The soil has also settled, any premixed soils recommended to top of with?

- Is it safe to fertilize?
- prune?
- saturate with water?
- repot?

Thanks for any help in advance.
