Gotta plant a FIG tree


For one thing, then I can make Katie's Fig Recipe.

Fig Tree tips
Hmmm... Figs are shallow rooted and the roots are aggressive - the tree gets quite large and shades out everything under it....never knew that.
Cooking Light on growing figs Some of the best-tasting figs spoil quickly and cannot be shipped out of the region where they are grown. That's a good reason to grow your own.

Lots to choose from! Violette de Bordeaux - A small, super, jet black fig from Spainl, considered by many to be the very best tasting fig. It's very hardy,good for cold climates. Two crops. It's highly productive in pots. Dwarf and prolific.
