I took one of my two potted "B-17G" figs (cleverly named B-17G #1 and #2) into the house to a South facing window and was amazed when it started putting on growth AND little figs. (Don't look for B-17G figs - these were named by me for the friend who gave me the cuttings and didn't know the name of the parent tree). Anyhow, as I looked out the window at 8 of snow, I took this pic of my little fig tree. It is only 2' tall and was rooted from a 6" cutting a year ago (Jan. 2009. I have the other "B-17G" fig outside on my deck. I will see how cold hardy they are here where it gets down to 15 degrees several nights a year. I'm hoping they are as tough as their namesake.
