Okay those have to be the largest leaves I have seen on a fig tree yet. Have you had a chance to taste those figs before? Look forward to seeing photos of the figs as you get ready to taste them. Will have to add this one to my list. Interesting. |

Marius, that is, at least in my mind a very impressive crop for a cutting that is only a little over four months old. Marius, do you have it in a pot and where are you located? Bob
