Til I figure out where I want to plant it, once it comes out of quarantine, want to make sure it has no type of foliar diseases, what type of soil mix should I plant it in? Since I have no idea what this gentleman used, I want to get the plant out of it and into something I know is good and safe.

I came home with a 3 gallon pot the one day of I plant I bought and had to get help lifting it. Thing felt like it weighed 50 lbs. When I dumped it to repot into soil I knew, it was filled with stones and hard clods of wet clay and somethings I didn't even know. No wonder the plant was struggling. Once it got a new home , it flurished.

Worth... There is a big Celeste tree down town I rob figs off of every year.

I just love the things.

Them the best tasting kind huh! LOL

Habitat... Good to know about the pruning. I have lots of wildlife and critters, plus I really don't like climbing trees to get fruit and holding a basket at the same time. : )
