Figs are great pot plants - just keep the pot small enough to move to a sheltered location in winter. As soon as the leaves all fall off, put the pot in your garage or even under the house. Put it back out in full sun after your last frost date and you will get good figs. Maybe you will get a few good figs this Summer! Black Mission is one of the best, in my opinion. Attached is an old pic of my dog waiting for another ripe fig.

My Black Mission fig froze to the ground last Winter but is now back up to 12" tall today (May 24) . I normally have no fig problems here but last Winter was a really cold one.
