Our neighbors are Greek. They have various trees; one of them being a fig tree. It overhangs our property, and they welcomed us to help ourselves to the figs. What a delight; so delicious.

That's how my Italian father took care of his figs in the winter. He also had many in the greenhouse. When he passed 3 years ago I cut trimmings and I now have many fig trees growing.

The smell of a fig tree full of fruit on a hot summer day brings me back to my childhood. Wonderful memories.

"Figs are not fruit, they are flowers"
My whole life is a lie.

I bought a fig tree (It was a bare cutting 3 inches tall with the tiniest leaves) and as soon as I planted it in a slightly larger pot, the leaves tripled in size in a month and I was SHOCKED. Then one year later (this year) I saw it was growing a bud, thinking it was a flower bud. Then the bud turned into a fig and I was even more shocked. I know flowers need to be there to bear fruit so I was soooo confused! I can't believe they're inside-out flowers.

I had five figs trees at my house in Spain. An old Spanish farmer told me that they like to have 'Their head in the sun and their feet in the water.' It was great just to go out and pick a fig off the tree. I don't know what variety they where, however one produced green, the sweetest ' a couple had the darker soft fruit. One produced a dark colour but tougher textured skin that split very easily They all tasted wonderful.

I have a fig tree full of figs and was wondering when to harvest them. This was so handy. It's the first doco, you have done on a tree that I have in my garden. To be fair, I think all your clips are great. You put so much effort into them, and it's appreciated ❤️ Thank you 🌻

I live in Northern California. When I was in elementary school, I would walk to and from school with my grandma. Along the route there would be house that planted a fig tree with the branches falling over the fence. I remember my grandma picking some off and handing them to me. They were so delicious!

I have fig trees that my grandpa plated like 20 -30 years ago and they are huge and I have bad problems with June bugs but they survive the winter I live in South Carolina so it doesn't snow here

Louisiana State University started a fig program in the 1950's in order to give those in the southeast or any warm humid climate fig verities that would do well commercially or for home orchards. They are grown throughout the world now.

Here in Canada I’ve been able to grow 2 fig trees for the last 3 years. Sun warmed figs picked from your very own tree is the best scent and the best thing ever!!

I'll eat wasps instead of heavy dose of pesticides.

"You're still thinking about dead wasps, aren't you?"

Me: who's still distraught about liquid wasps inside a fig* 😳😳😳
