I ate fresh figs for the first time in my life in Yugoslavia. we camped under a fig
tree and stood on the car to pick figs until I couldnt eat any more.
I have been determined to grow my own fresh figs. without much result ... until now.

I have a celeste fig in a large container. move it into my heated garage over
winter, back out to the back yard in spring. I finally got a ripe fig, smaller than
a large marble. the first one went to DH who "thinks" a fig tastes like those dried
up shriveled things in bag. he went wild. I got the second one. heaven.

these figs arent large. is that due to the "tree" being rather small or the type of
fig? do fig trees drop leaves due to temp or photo period?
