I asked a question on another forum about figs and was directed here.
Some years ago my Dad brought fig cuttings down and I planted them. I have no idea what kind or where he got the figs from.
I do know that he ad a tree/bush in the back yard and that they got figs from it.
Only one of the cuttings survived.
It had figs on it once for a grand total of 7 figs.
Several folks told me to move it next to a building, DH thought it was silly so had a hard time convincing him until one of HIS buddies said the same.
We moved it in the winter of 2009 next to the barn on the south/east side.
It did better but no fruit.
This year is is way way better and seems happy, over 5' tall and seems happy but still no fruit.
I do water it.
Have not put any manure around it since spring ( we use goat manure)
Is there something I need to be doing that I am not?
I really want it to produce figs, can't seem to find any here and would like some for my Kefir Water.
Here is a photo I took the other day.

Thanks
Nancy

It might be good for you to do some pinching. Search the fig forums for "pinching" and study up.

Good Luck, Little John

Looks quite healthy, so doubt lack of water and fertilizer are an issue.

If this is dying back severely in the winter, that might be affecting it.

Also, if fertilizer is mostly Nitrogen (and I am thinking manure is mostly nitrogen) that may be encouraging lush vegetative growth rather than fruiting. You might need to use something that is more balanced (has N-P- and K, not just N) The P and K are more condive to fruiting and flowering.
