Is it feasible to grow a fig permanently in a pot? I realise it'd have to
be a fairly large one, but would the tree still fruit if it was pruned to
keep it within bounds? I'd quite like to try one.

It's the recommended way. They fruit better with a restricted root run.

Read's nursery has a large number of fig varieties for greenhouse
growing.


I didn't realise there were so many varieties to choose from; I'd only
heard of 'Brown Turkey' before.

Many thanks to everyone for the help.
