Figs looking good

They look healthy well done growing figs out doors.😊

Nice figs! I gave up on mine.

Lovely plants they look very healthy. Hope you have a good crop this year.

Thanks, fingers crossed, if today's weather is a foretaste I'll be knee deep in them

Figs are definitely on my list! Do they take long to start fruiting? The one thing my garden has in its favour is it's South facing with a paved area that's a really good sun trap & retains heat overnight. I even managed to grow a couple of aubergines there which isn't bad for outdoors in Manchester. Is it too late to order a couple for putting out this year?

Great that you can grow figs. I've never seen them growing or seen any to buy. I hope you get a good crop this year again.

D8, they seem to get going after a couple of years, they fruit near tips on previous years wood, hence the pruning cycle is get new growth whilst limiting size

Never too late to get some, give them a year's summer to get going & settled. They are quite ornamental plants as well, give a touch of exotics to the place

We inherited one with the bungalow, but don't eat them, so they get given away. It gets 'pruned' a bit like Grand-gardener, when it tries to take over and I have stabbed myself on it a few times!

Thanks GG, I'll keep a lookout for a couple.
I got a surprise today when I went to pinch out the side shoots on my toms & they all had flower buds! Bit too early so I nipped them off but a promise of things to come hopefully
