I've got both figs (Brown Turkey, Black Genoa & a couple of unnamed varieties) and goji berries (they used to be called wolfberries until the western marketers got hold of them). I've only had them since early spring - figs from cuttings and goji berry from seed. Anyway, I'm not sure how any of them will go as we get quite harsh winters (-15°C) and I have heavy clay soil. I've taken note of your experiences Frank.
One of the figs is from a local tree which does extremely well so I'm hopeful there. I've never noticed seed in any locally grown figs. Have a read here (http://www.crfg.org/pubs/ff/fig.html) for the odd tale of fig pollination.
