Jujube- We had a cold Winter in 2008-2009 and one night it was 8 degrees (I woke up and looked at my thermometer) That was just after I moved in and the black mission and Celeste froze to the ground. They came back and grew about 5 or 6 feet tall and I covered their main trunk with foam pipe insulators for the 2009-2010 Winter and had no loss. I didn't do any insulation this year and they still seem fine. I am expecting a good harvest this year unless we have an early Spring followed by an Easter freeze. So far Winter has been good for the plants with 15 deg on 3 nights so far and mostly in the low 20s.
