![fig green | Walter Reeves: The Georgia Gardener Losing Leaves](https://t9e4s3i5.rocketcdn.me/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/fig-green-600x450.jpg)
Q: My fig tree appears to be dead and all the leaves have fallen off. Any idea what caused this tree to die?
A: Don’t give up! Fig trees in my neighborhood have lost all their leaves but
scratching the bark with my thumbnail reveals that they are alive. Wait till
next May; if you have no leaves then, your fig is dead.
