Frank, they look great - very red eye even early in development. Did you pinch earlier in the season? Mine was starting from a cutting one year ago and was planted in the ground in April. It's putting out lots of vegetative growth but no figs. I won't get impatient and start pinching until next year. __________________ Steve MD zone 7a

KB is notorious for taking a long time to fruit. Nice work!

I have to admit, I did pinch her this year. That little flirt obviously liked it. ;)) __________________ Frank Tallahassee, FL Zone 8b North Florida Figs
