This is an air layering of a large green fig I originally obtained from Edible Landscaping many, many years ago. Name is long forgotten.

Won't that take too much energy from the plant?
In the end killing it?

The root system is well established, so it will have no problem surviving... plus, I have plenty of the same type both in ground and in pots.

If it were an RDB or Black Madeira, I would have picked the fig off a long time ago. I've never had a fig ripen in January before. I think it's neat having such a large fig on  a little plant..bonsai-like.
