Yesterday I decided to visit Costco to see if they carry Live Figs trees, after all it's a fruit tree season.
They had no trace of Fig Trees yet!
Disappointed I left Costco, after only 2 hrs of shopping, and as I was in front of my steering wheel I started to lough my sucks off and having conversation with God for his joke on me.

There it was , right in from of my car... in it's glory, a beautifig bush of a surprise to take a glance at what I missed.

   

What were they? Look like Black Mission. Here in Charlotte, they only had blueberries and apple trees.

This one was an in-ground planted one looking at me all the time I was parking my car.

I'm going to follow with this one until fruiting, take pics and if any good i'll go back at dormancy to get cuttings.

Aaron, Make sure you do not drive to a different Costco location, you will find more fig trees there, and more across the street, and more on a street 100 yards away :) Who is going to take care of your synonyms' list if you get lost on a fig hunt?

Hi,
Yesterday got a phone call from the bro. He was shopping : "hey, there is a sale on figtrees, they are 50% off . they are labelled: 'figue noire d'Espagne'. Da ya want one? "
I'm sure I said no at least in the beginning then, perhaps, why not ?,and nyes , and ended with another figtree for 10€ . I still have not seen the beast .
He sent me a pic. The tree has a trunk and a canopy with 3 or 4 branches .
Well I think I'll convert a lila-tree to a fig-tree ...
It seems that in this season you can now find fig trees in every shop here .

uhwhats with the accent french man, too much coniaque?   LOL

10 Euro for a tree is a great deal no?
