Why Val1 Love's Edible Plants

They are sooo rewarding to take a fresh and succulent fig or orange and bite into it, utter bliss.

I love this fig as I planted 5, 2 x Black Genoa, 2 x Brown Turkey and 1x white Adriatic which I purchased from you in 2008 to surprise my Husband who was recovering from his first stroke.

They have all fruited and grown from small plants to over 3m high and ready for this season's fruit. Can't wait!!! The taste is... to die for, soft and delicious. If you have only tasted the dried ones be ready for an explosion in your mouth!

They all taste fantastic, not too fussed about the white adriatic though, maybe we are spoilt by the other 4 trees.

I never thought after 1 year they would fruit to the capacity they did, maybe it's the constant talking and nurturing they receive.

Fruiting Months January and December

Planted: 2008

Height 3 metres

Growing: In the Ground

Qty: 5

Fruit Harvest: 2 kilograms per Year

First Fruited: 1 Years from purchase in pot

Water Given in: Spring

Pollination: No

Question:

I would now like to espillair them, I know I have left it a little too late but can I trim them back to ground level or just trim the larger branches???
