WOW. That is some story.

I confess to be a newly fig grower. My best variety (among seven) also was purloined off of a neighbor's tree. It, too, came over in a suitcase from Greece. This is my "Greek white" (I named it.) Pretty weird, though -- it is now pushing out a second crop. (See photo.)

I started while I was a commuter -- and took a plant (Celeste) back to Princeton, where we had a temporary home. It died back each winter, but had still flourished when we left it there.

I think, that in order to bear fruit it needs be in the ground. But, who knows. Your potted plant looks gorgeous, but.

Good luck -- let me need if you decide to become a grower and need cuttings.

Be well
