We lost our feijoa this year even though we covered and lightly heated them. They had survived colder winters but I think this time the temperature dropped too suddenly.
We lost Chilean guava last year.
I am not willing to try any more zone 8 plants in Vancouver but I haven't figured out what to replace them with.
On that note, what are everyone's favourite fruit trees/shrubs to grow in the Lower Mainland? We have figs, Italian plums, blueberries, and kiwi berries. I am considering adding pears or mulberries.
