To somebody who has actual experience with a particular plant Its very
simple so If you know nothing about figs or have just got the information
from a book then learn from an expert like me who has grown these for 30
years in England and Italy..

I dont need to know the farty " real scientific name " or other boring
trivial information about it, I know from experience but all that matters at
the end of the day is for you to have a go


Pam, what exactly do you need expanding?

Whilst eating a fig back in November I suddenly decided to plant some of
the seeds. I stuck them in a freezer bag of seed compost, put them on a
window sill and forgot about them. I now have about 20 to 30 seedlings.
What do I do now? Are they worth growing on, or are figs like many other
fruits and best left to experts in their earlier stages?

I did the same thing with dates at Christmas. I now have some stones
with sort of tap roots - these I have planted into small pots, some in
plastic bags, some not. Are they worth carrying on with?

Thank you in advance
