looks like you have a wild fig... figs usually are not planted by the seeds, but by planting branches of already known 'domesticated' figs, in the ground, where the new branch takes root and turns into a tree itself... aka cloning.
- seiferteric 5y agoI have a volunteer fig tree that is about 7 years old now. I am finally getting good figs off of it this year. With water and fertilizer it seems to have responded very well, with nice large figs. It is a mission fig variety.
- austincheney 5y agoWhat do you use for fertilizer? My tree seems to respond well to bonemeal and this year I have fed it all my discarded banana peels. For my tree these contribute to excellent growth but I still get very few figs.
- seiferteric 5y agoI just use an organic fruit tree fertilizer. I also pruned it to be a "tree" since it is in a tight space, but it really wants to be a bush and is constantly sending up shoots from the roots.
