Trying to do a little decorating and I'm looking for a ficus tree in the Phoenix metro area. Any suggestions on where to go.?

Are you aware of how sensative Ficus trees are to the cold? My neighborhood lost dozens of ficus tress last year during the cold snap. They have not been replaced yet and are all dead. I'd certainly not put a ficus tree in my yard here.

All the nurseries carry ficus trees, moon valley is the largest in the valley but they all will have them.

Ficus trees are beautiful but I have to agree with LBTRS on this one, they are too cold sensitive and will break your hear when they freeze and you lose the tree, have to cut it back down to the trunk and start all over. It happened twice at our old house in a 7 year span. And that's if your lucky and don't lose the whole tree.
