Hi all. I kept this plant from going dormant inside the house in front of a south facing window before the frosts came and now I am being rewarded. I received this cutting from a generous forum member and it is it's first year. The taste reminded me of the black missions I get at the grocery store but the skin was chewier. (I haven't tasted very many figs yet). Here are some pictures from today of my feast.
