Unfortunately not, the flower and fruit will most likely freeze in late January. The trick around here is to keep them FROM fruiting this late in the season. If you can dial back the water in the Fall, they will fruit first thing in the spring. This is ideal but tricky since we naturally get tons of rain even when it is "dry". The trunk will not freeze here, but since it flowered it wont make a difference. Cardaba is a new one for me and has proven to be super vigorous.
