Best care for a full grown fig tree?
We bought a house with a fig tree in the back yard. How do I care for it? I’ve never had a green thumb. I didn’t make one recipe with the last harvest. I’m quite indifferent with its mortality, but I also care about making my backyard look nice. I might take care of it, if I knew how,

Hi Michele,
Its important to keep the ground cleaned up from fog debris and your tree likes water but not wet feet. That’s about all you need to do or that is all we have done for over a decade.
PS. If you have a dehydrator, dried figs last all year and are yummy!

Pick the fruit, set on porch with some bags and try an honor system, charge ?$2? For 10? Take some to donate.
