Happy to see the gardening sub pop up, and want to facilitate some discussion. So ask me anything you're curious about. I might not know the answer outright, but can help troubleshoot stuff too.

    It was a potted tree at my parents' for years. I planted it in my garden 5 years ago, it seems to like it here as it has tripled in size. It's the first year I get ripe fruit (4 figs now) but the color doesn't really change so I was wondering if I can maybe feel or smell when ripe.

      Hmm sorry. I don't know anything about figs. Some fruit trees can produce more fruit than they can support and so they don't ripen, but doesn't sound like what's happening with yours :(
