I am not sure if this has been posted, but I found it interesting. There are some old pictures of fig trees that have been pruned in orchard production. http://books.google.com/books?id=EIwaAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA6&lpg=PA6&dq=how+to+grow+figs&source=bl&ots=Xvo5KL_UkT&sig=16DVXx7phcDifmwB-UW3jiOqYVI&hl=en&ei=EtR9S7TsAsSXtgfVmuTCBQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=10&ved=0CB4Q6AEwCTiCAQ#v=onepage&q=how%20to%20grow%20figs&f=false __________________ Tim Zone 8a Newport, NC Near the coast.

Gene Why not write a review after " quite a read ". There is no 'Review' written yet. __________________ Ottawan-Z5a, Canada

Good question, I just quickly read about 60 percent of it and had no time to really comment on it. Perhaps I'll find time later. "gene" __________________ From the bayou, "gene" zone 9 Houma, La.

Gene How did you read it on line? I could not get to read it. I thought you were kidding so that is why I said to write the review. __________________ Ottawan-Z5a, Canada

Terowan, thanks for posting that . I have not seen this one before and it was long on the eyes. There were some points of interest for me as well.

Ottawan, I took you for being serious, me of all people. I had no problem reading it. It was as clear as day. There are some great old pictures of trees and orchards, ways of pruning and much more. What I found very interesting is the frequent mentioning of Louisiana in it. I'll have to go back and read the rest of it. I sure there's something in there that I need to know. It is long, I'm thinking 18 pages maybe or even more. Like I said a good read. "gene" __________________ From the bayou, "gene" zone 9 Houma, La.
