So cute, mimicking Dad!
Your daughter has a sweet smile, and is very affectionate towards her Daddy.
I bought a fig called "Fig Evita", a few months ago. Medium brown fruit.
I want to grow it in a pot.
I didn't realise that some fig trees have to be pruined in a different way.
I will have find out what how to pruin this fig tree.
I learnt something new today😂
Thank You Craig for your video! 👍👍👋

Nice video! My friend has moved to a property that has an old fig tree that has produced a breba crop of huge figs. No idea what variety it is, and I've yet to taste the main crop, but I'm thinking of taking some cuttings... Groenvyekonfyt is one of the most delicious things on the planet.

I find that if I want to trick a small child into eating a fig, I pick a smallish fig and tell them that the way to eat a fig is to put the whole fig in their mouth at once—I demonstrate.
So far it has worked every time. Usually if they bite into it and see the odd looking inside of the fruit they’ll be reluctant to take another bite. After they taste how good it is they don’t seem to mind the unusual appearance of the inside.
The SE US version is called the turkey fig. Interesting to see varieties I’ve never seen before.
