First Home Grown Fig In 6 Years.

[bullet08]

Arkansas. Yeah, it's little bit chilly there for fig trees in winter. I used to do container culture. That means keep the trees in pots and take 'em to garage during the winter. Not fun. The one on the OP is dead now. Good fig, but tree didn't do too well during winter down here. Have two good ones in ground for some time. But the lawnmower guys are keep cutting them down to root. I need to move 'em.

Coll de Dama Rimada. Used to have over 100 fig trees. All grown in containers. I ended up killing them all while I was going through health issues. Last year, I got 7 trees. I left them to tough it out and 4 survived. I knocked out all the figs for better growth and left this one on the tree. Definitely has potential. Good raspberry taste. Can't wait till next year.
