I am posting a photo of the seedlings so you can see how tender they are. the window box is attached to the railing so I would have to transplant them. Gordon -- are you saying I could put them inside a Styrofoam cooler for the winter? Would they need light? Every so often I see Styrofoam boxes in the trash on the curb outside supermarkets. Fruit gets shipped in them. I am not sure they are deep enough to hold a flower pot. But if I put them in small pots, how much soil would they need? Would complete darkness be OK? I might be able to find an old cooler somewhere too.

I am out of town the next three weekends, but could keep my eyes out for something that would work.

And thanks to this warm spell, I might get some ripe figs in the next day or two.
