creeping fig hardiness

19 years ago

Can I leave my creeping fig topiary outside this winter? I live in western Maryland mountains. This is my first year growing creeping fig and I don't have much area for keeping houseplants inside.

No, I think your area is too cold for creeping fig. I'm in zone 8a and don't think it will live over the winter here. I have two creeping fig topiaries inside under a grow light and they do well.

Not in your zone. These plants are tropical - zone 11.
