Re: Figs
While we're on the topic, do you guys bother with them in the winter and let them be.........or do you"winterize" them?

My dad winterized his trees. I remember making fun of him because it was HILARIOUS - they were all wrapped in black plastic with a bucket on top. But even though we got a few figs.. the fruit never fully matured. How many years did you have the tree before it provided a good yeild?

If by winterize you mean, covering them up with garbage bags and all that jazz...yes we do. But I can't take all the credit - lol. My in-laws take care of that  .

Re: Figs
Yes, that is what I mean by "winterizing". My uncle used to do the same thing and he always had a ton of figs in the summer.
Meanwhile, my friends MIL doesnt do anything to hers in the winter, she just leaves it alone....and her fig tree is beautiful!
I just dont get it!
