Here is a recent pic of m Celeste figs. This tree is very happy with its roots under about 3" of leaf and hardwood chip mulch. Fig roots are shallow and out about 5' from my fairly small tree.

I just re-read your first post - do you happen to have a photo of the large fig tree in France? As a kid, I used to climb a neighbor's tree (Augusta, GA)to reach the ripe figs. I think I have posted several inquiries about large fig trees on DG and no one seemed to have seen one. I remember some that were huge, on the banks of a canal.
