Ditto on the congrats. :) I too have lots of tiny figs forming. I hope for both our sakes that there is enough time and warmth for them to mature half-way decently.

Now the race begins between the fig and old man winter. Here is hoping they have the time to ripen and beat winter. Best of luck:)

Thanks - I have been checking everyday. It cooled down a little the last few days and we did have a good amount of rain. I don't know if the rain caused it or if it was just time for them to burst out. Either way I am very happy about it - FIGS IN .....NOV?! Everyone seems to agree its LSU Purple - Sounds good to me, tastes good too!
