I started this a few years ago it's done in a cascade style  it's coming along nicely I doubt I will ever put it in a small bonsai pot because you would probably have to water it every 15 minutes  in the heat of the summer I did get some figs last year not this year the variety is Gillette.

Very cool, Dave. It would look great in an appropriate pot. Bonsai pots can be large. I think it was Grasa who posted the video of a Bonsai master, and he had some in big containers.

Dave, do you want me to send you some special fertilize for those trees in the background? Remember it's special.

Next year I may put it in a very big pot and let it grow out to put some mass on the trunk and then cut it back at the end of the year

Thanks for the offer Hershell but you can keep that in Georgia I don't think it will work here in Connecticut  LOL

Oh yea. It'll work wonders there too. You can't say I didn't offer and I bet you'll stay awake all night thinking about it. Lol. Dave, it's not what pot you put it in, it's what you put in the pot with it. Haha!
