@Daisl , @Philipwonel & @Turbosaurus Yes, those San Joaquin Valley figs really do turn in to real tall trees, there !
I tried to keep mine going that way, by overwintering indoors. but I eventually planted it out, after not finding a pot any larger, that could be easily moved in & out & planted in the ground. After twnty years it was huge, but stayed a giant "shrub" & produced fruit like crazy. I had so many pounds of them, when ripe, used a pasta boiling pot, to cook them up & made fig preserves. I'd like to have another 'California style, 'Black Mission' they're so tasty sweet.
