A few weeks ago I was putting my trees to bed for the winter. One of them had several little small diameter, short suckers. I removed them because they were so green and I did not like, where they were growing on the tree. Not wanting to be wasteful and thought it would be a good experiment I potted them, watered them a teaspoon at a time keeping the potting mix mostly dry and when I got home tonight, magic has happened. Three of the are showing growth, and the other two are still green and hanging in there. __________________ Arthur, Saint Louis CO, MO (Z 6B)

It's a start, way to give it a try. Hopefully everything keeps going well and they turn to trees for you. What kind of fig are they? __________________ Calvin Littleton,CO z5/6 Wants List: For everyone to clean-up after themselves and co-exist peacefully.
