Hoping for a ton of figs. On the existing bush we haven't had bird problems. I am thankful for that, but then again it hasn't produced a lot. Hope you have great success with yours.

Just be warned that the birds and squirrels love them too, but only eat part of the fig throwing the rest to the ground......somewhat messy but worth it.Lohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08398370059689865989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5073185635856849089.post-30699352631690395512011-02-03T23:46:48.093-08:002011-02-03T23:46:48.093-08:00It is a pretty looking bud..I hope you get some fr...It is a pretty looking bud..I hope you get some fruit! :)Far Side of Fiftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995757632158408442noreply@blogger.com
