Atreano |
These are fig trees started from cuttings this winter. These are among the fastest to grow. I have some under 1 foot tall. For the most part, all have been getting 1/4 teaspoon Miracle Grow for Tomatoes. Not organic, I know. A temporary measure to get them up and growing faster. The idea is similar to fertigation. Sort of.
 |
Carini |
There are several Carini starts. This is one of the smaller ones. May be a bit stunted due to the figs already growing.
 |
Another Carini |
Another Carini, also with some early fig formation.
 |
Champagne |
Champagne fig. This is the larger of two. There are tiny figs forming in leaf axils.
|
North of house on hot day |
There are potential disadvantages to the fast growth. They may not be hardy for winter. They are also not durable for hot summer days in full sun. So I moved them to the North side of the house. They need daily water.
 |
Lattarula |
I don't need another Lattarula but I have someone in mind who would like to have it. Once we are past the hottest part of summer, I plan to give it away.
 |
Smith |
The Smith cuttings surprised me and took off like the others. I thought they would be slower.
 |
The other Smith |
This Smith tree needs a larger container. I'm concerned it will dry out if I don't water dailyh or twice daily.
