    Well done James, my daughter’s got a beauty in her garden, I couldn’t grow them here, too cold and windy.

    last year i didnt have any flowers and i dont know why?  this spring has been cold wet and windy a terrible combo but it is finally getting warm.  the winter knocked 3 of my fig trees to the ground but are now coming back from the roots! here you can see the dead trunk but its growing back from the ground

    We didn’t have any flowers last year either, sometimes the weather in previous years can effect flowering the next so could be that. Just buds on ours at the moment.
