We’ve imported our Flickr.com photo albums so you can see our photos without leaving…the added bonus for us is that we can see and display your comments from Flickr, right here, so WE don’t have to leave the site!
By the way, feel free to post your comments about the photos on Flickr…we enjoy reading them. We will answer all your questions about fig trees, as soon as possible, but we don’t always see the questions sent via a comment. The best way to ask a question is to click “Contact” above, and send us your question that way.

Thanks!

It’s the last thing anyone’s in the mood for, discussing pre-winter care, but we’ve improved the descriptions (slightly!) and moved the whole discussion to its own category, called (appropriately):”Fig Tree Care“.

Step 1

Tree cut back, ready for wrapping. Support poles in the corners of the bed remain year-round, so that the roots aren’t damaged by adding supports later.

Winter_protection_2

Step 2
A layer of old foam insulation, topped with an old flannel bedsheet.

Winter_protection_3

Step 3

Wooden top laid over, to prevent accumulation of moisture or sagging.
