I grow my figs in pots so that I can protect them in the winter. I get more fruit that way, since less wood is damaged. Kadota did well for me at me previous house, but I didn't bring it with me since they tend to get winter killed to the ground here. I've missed my collection ever since I moved, and started acquiring new varieties last year.
Shoe, Jolly Tiger has dark, sweet figs and seems to produce two crops a year. It throws reversions occasionally, with branches that have no variegation. I've been using these to practice propagation, but I've only been successful with layering so far. Care to share your secrets?
