Great!! I've had tons of figs, but picked from other's gardens or
bought. I've never grew one. Funny as it's my favourite jam. Looking
for a Tamarix atm. I fell in love with them. Do you think it would be
ok in a pot/container?

I have never heard of a Tamarix but shall look it up. My fig (Brown
Turkey) is in a very large pot, the size of a small dustbin. Someone
here (Rusty, I think) suggested about three years ago planting it out in
the garden in a washing-machine drum but I haven't got round to it yet.
When it stops producing as much fruit, I shall hurry along and find a
drum and persuade someone - probably Bas - to dig me a huge hole in the
garden.
