    I was relaxing outside and looked up- my fig tree has figs! Only three at the moment but it's a start! It's too dark to take pics but I will post some tomorrow. (I'm doing a happy dance!)

    Congrats on the figs. I have a large fig tree out back and every year the birds beat me to the figs. Hope you get to eat some of yours.

    Isn't it great to discover something bearing fruit when you didn't expect it? I look forward to seeing your piccies of the fig. Let's hope they are just the beginnings of a bigger harvest. :-D

    Yummy! I'm always climbing in fig trees and stuffing myself with fresh figs whenever I get the chance. That's about every second summer. :D

    That is great TBL. It must be a bit of a thrill to grow your own figs.
    It seems like things are going well there. Keep up the good gardening.

    Wow congratulations on the figs! I remember when at another home I had some apple trees and how excited I was when the first apples set on them! They will be good eating!
