I move two Celecte two years from now from my girlfriend yard..She just don't want them..They was 10 feet tall..
And we cut roots pretty bad, because she was in such hurry..I trasport them to my property and plant them..They both survive.. This was a middle of a summer here in Florida..
I think you need to try it..
Figs doing good in pots too..I have many of them in pots, even 6 feet tall...
Just get big pots for big figs..
Check out local nursery for big pots..
I all the time getting even 25 gallon free..
