This fig tree is not going anywhere @tuikowhai34. It is huge and very firmly anchored. We have been given a small one that is planted in our potager and will be nurtured with as much neglect as it needs to see if we can get fruit from there.
Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.

I'd definitely pot those figs into something a bit larger and if you really want to get ripe figs, bearing in mind our climate is unreliable, keep them in a greenhouse. A few years back I was at Audley End and the glasshouses had a collection of fig trees, each with just one stem and about three or four feet tall. I thought I'd copy the experts so I took cuttings from my fig trees, put them in the greenhouse, and got ripe figs for the first time.
I’ve had a fig tree in a very large(10 gallon?) pot for eight years and it has never born fruit. Two years ago I obtained a cutting from an alligator refuge in southern Colorado and grew it. It’s also in a large pot, and it has about twenty figs on it. Same location, same watering and care. I just don’t thing the older tree is ever going to bear fruit.
