chicago Hardy fig tree

Question

Hello,

I Planted a Chicago hardy fig tree two years ago in my yard. last year about ealy September we had maybe 15 figs we enjoyed 9 of them the raccoons enjoyed the rest lol:). anyway my questions is when does the fig start growing its leaves in zone 7a New Jersey its been a crazy spring one day its warm the next day its very cold.

does the weather have anything to do with the growing of the leaves?

Thank you,
Stephen

Hard to give you a time, except when it warms enough to break it's dormancy.

It was certainly a strange long winter!
