fig tree

This morning I had two very sweet figs from this tree, which my friend Linda dug up from her garden.  Fig trees will send out suckers all over the place and this one started as one.  In the past three and the half years it has shot up, taller than the fence.  It has produced very small fruits in the previous seasons but they dropped before maturity.  This year the fruits are still small but are ripening and I had the good fortune to taste them before the birds.
