With a head start.
My fig tree whisperer friend John texted with the message that it was time for our fig to move from its first winter shelter inside our second bedroom to the great outdoors of our backyard.
Last year this baby started its life, planted carefully by John and lasting its first summer at our place after its predecessor did not live year one living out winter in our shed.
John has been grateful using our premises as another Central New York proving ground for his fig trees.
Meanwhile, John updated the progress of his great keep-one-in-the-ground experiment over at his place with a great texted photo.

Looking strong.
Let’s hope for a blooming summer for this fig tree not moved into his garage for the winter!
Grow fig, grow! Still, it is always good to have a “fig tree whisperer” on-call, Mark!

My little hand dolly allowed my dear wife Karen and I to move the little fig with little bumps and well-communicated OKs, Beth. Glad to hear your cousin and grandfather got the fit in and out for years!
