As you could see there's little budding on the trunk and on the bottom of the tree. But no signs of buds on the top of it. If I do cut into some of the branches they are still green. I did cut off pretty much of a lot of the Dead stuff. Like I said I do not know what caused this first time in over 20 years I've ever seen a tree like this

I don't have any pictures of the white Webbing stuff on the tree when I uncovered it but I will send you pictures of what it looks like now and what it looks like last year

Hello
I live in Chicago we have had a fig tree for about 40 years, it was my grandfathers. I covered it the same way for all these year in the winter. This year after the winter I uncovered it to find like white moss or white webs on it with no leaves or buds. Now the tree has life on the bottom of the trunk and on the trunk but nothing on the branches. Would anyone have an idea what happened this year? Its been uncovered for about two 1/2 weeks now. So sad
