I will say that my Campo Ramon is ever so slightly hardier than my Sabara, but it is not revolutionary by any means. It still gets beat down in the winter. I consider it a zone push to have jabos outdoor all year in 9b. 8b and 8a, ok, you're really on the edge there but I salute you, 7b on the other hand is a death sentence. It may not be year 1, maybe not year 2, but eventually, it'll get got.
I've killed so many trees being optimistic and thinking I could beat the odds, but it was wasteful both financially and in killing a living thing. I think back to those days sadly, and how foolish I was.
As others point out, 1 visit to 17f for a few hours is one thing, but days on end, it'll die. Not to mention, a few warm weeks teasing some new growth out then a cold snap, that really does it to them.
Im in zone 8b/9a and I lost a 12 year old Sabara in 17f freeze. 6 inch diameter trunk, 9ft tall. It was big and protected. Had some more frost hardy jabos I was able to protect better and move the pots but they also were bitten a bit. Folks are right, one hard snap at these lows and jabos are donezo.
Not exactly what I wanted to hear. Would it be possible if I dig it up at the first sign of trouble?
I don't get this. Just leave it in a pot and bring it in.

I can’t get your website to load on mobile. Not sure if it’s just me or not.
