I bought this Fig tree at the market. It had a few bug chews on the leaves, but northing major, the rest of it seemed to look good, so I bought it. There was no tags with it and the gentleman I bought it from could only remember it had the word Black somewhere in it's name. So I have no idea what it is actually called.

Anybody know a fig that has Black first or second in it's name?

The plant seemed to be doing ok these past several weeks, but today as I was scouting leaves to make sure no pests was hiding, I noticed the leaves feel very dry, almost to the point of feeling crunchy and a few of them the ends are starting to roll.

Any suggestions as to what might be going on and what I need to do for it?
