I'm in the midwest and had a version of this type of fig. We pruned ours all the way down to about 18" after each fall harvest. Prob because of our winters. Then cover with dead leaves for the winter. Very hardy, produce lots of fruit, the leaves smell good, attract huge beautiful moths - but they don't damage the plant, and they are easy to start new plants from.
My fig tree dies off in the winter and comes back in the spring. It starts producing fruits in late spring. It does not make many fig fruits at all though. Does anyone know how to make these trees produce more fruit?
some varieties you need two trees in order to achieve pollination. While others are "self" pollinating, depends on which variety you have. You also are dependent on bees or wasps to do the dirty deed for you. It you are in an area that doesn't have many bees or wasps, then you can do it yourself when the tree blooms using a cotton swab, dab the pistil from one trees blossom to the other trees blossom and continue until you have cross pollinated all the blossoms on both trees.
fig tree we have them in the yard good eating to when there ripw but milky nasty if not ripe i have had fig trees all my life i guess in our yard even in florida i had fig trees in my yard there great
There is another species of tree that looks a lot like a fig tree, but bears no fruit. The bark is a light tan mottled color. The bark can be peeled off and makes excellent cordage when twisted. Does anyone know this tree? Have many growing in the backyard.
I don't know if it's a paticular kind of tree. But that fruit looks like figs and fig trees are real popular here in North Carolina, they are edible, and their trees do grow to be about 20 feet tall. So based on a hunch and Kevins information I'm going to say figs on a fig tree.
And by the way, I love figs. They have to be the best fruit god gave us. Theyr'e plentiful on the trees they grow on, you really don't have to clean them, and they taste great.
Fig tree. Very delicious. Just like the magnolia tree on previous video, I also have one of these in my back yard. What a coincidence! I have seen some dishes that the leaves are edible too. Never ate fig leaves though.
I like fig newtons with wasp heads crushed in them.

Almost like grape vines... but you take a section of the stem, make a slit in it, and bury. I miss my fig bushes! Thanks for your videos!

Fig.
When I saw the shape of the plant I was 30% sure. When I saw the leaves, I was 70% sure, when I saw the fruit I'm now 90% sure.
I didn't know they grow into trees, we have a small bush about 2 feet tall in our backyard.
