I live in Mobile Al. While my Foggii is still a young plant, It came out of our 2 really bad freezes draped with only a cotton sheet and a prayer last winter. The Meyer lemons not ten feet away dropped every bloom and gave us zero lemons (2 trees & over 200 the yr before -7 yr. trees) My Foggii bloomed as usual. I has been in the low 20's, so far it has not had any apparent effect.We'll see this spring. Jim Tomczak Mobile Al. (8a or,& 8b Sometimes I can't tell)
