Default Figs

It sounds like the first small fruits failed to overwinter for you last
year, the fruit still on the tree will not ripen now and can be removed,
next years fruits are still tiny button like buds in the axials, we ate
our last figs on 12th October from the Brown Turkey, first figs were in
late July.


I've still got ripening figs on mine.

One day I'll get round to erectinf a temporary 'greenhouse' over the
tree for the winters...
