These fig trees are growing in my neighborhood park. They were probably planted back in the late 60's early 70's when the park was built. I am pretty sure they are all Celeste. Each one is around 20ft tall and there are some in full sun and others in part shade. |

Figs normally require a fair amount of sun to set fruit. Being in shade will reduce the yield or eliminate the crop entirely in some instances. |

I thought they were good examples since there has been a lot of talk about tree's yellowing and dropping leaves. These do every year, but every year they come back beautifully and have a huge crop of figs. |

Wow, so many fig trees near me that I've never seen. The first one is huge in diameter! |

I feel the same here in NE Texas, Steve. There are bound to be figs here, I'm just not looking in the right places. |

Steve, these are all pretty good size. The smallest was probably that first picture. And just down the street from this park there is a fig tree that stands a good 10 ft above a wood privacy fence. A lot of nice old fig tree's in this area. |
