I bought a small (less than 1ft) fig plant (un-named) earlier this
year. It's in a pot and I've not taken much notice of it for a few
months.
Now I see that there are tiny figs in the leaf axils.
I know there is some ruling about taking off some fruit at the end of
the year, but can not remember whether it is the small ones that stay
on over winter or large.
Do my tiny, pea sized figs stand any chance? They surely won't grow to
maturity this year? Plant has 2 stems, taller about 18ins.

i have learnt not to touch the small/tiny ones as they are the ones you will
be hopeuflly enjoying next year.

our tree was 6 foot when we move in so i can`t comment on younger trees
