Not usually, but supposedly we're in for a really cold winter. I'm told it's too cold for most citrus here, so we'd need a cold hardy variety. I'm hoping that my avocados are cold hardy. If not, I'll have to bring them inside, which will probably only work for one year.
Growing tropical plants in the wrong climate is hard. I wish I had a nice green house but I can't always get what we want sadly. I hope your avocados make it through winter.
It seems one avocado is going to make it. One wilted and dropped it's leaves, while the other has come back well in the warmer days. I'll need to keep a better eye on the weather and bring it in when it freezes. You're right, a greenhouse would be great, but I think the trees would outgrow it, wouldn't they?
Central Texas. Where are you from?
North Texas. Wise county
Does it get really cold in winter? I have some citrus plants that I have to cover when we go below freezing, but that doesn't happen too much here.

They didn't 😂
I left em out during our first freeze the other day. It came two weeks sooner than average.
My citrus trees are unhappy. The freeze got them too.
