I stood inside the tree and shot outward. We make a lot of things from the figs, such as fig butter, stewed figs and apples and dried figs. We get two harvests per year and get lots of figs each time. The deep purple figs are the ones that are ripe. The purple and green ones are half ripe.
Putting the fig tree to bed for the winter: first tie it up, dig around the roots, lean the tree over into a dug up trench, then cover it with boards..

Yesterday I went to New Hampshire with Mel. This fig tree belongs to two new faculty members at UNH who are moving in to their new place. I had never seen a fig tree, so of course I decided to take pictures. This is the best one. I decide to post it today because the timing is right to consider the fig tree. What was that line again? Something about sitting under a vine and fig tree, something about swords beaten into plowshares, something about studying war no more, something about no one being afraid. . . .
is absolutely gorgeous. He built it himself, it's "underground", perfect for Darwin and its mountain/desert environment, has skylights all over, solar panels that supply all his energy, and even an Ibook for a computer! the dude has got it made!
I am looking for a recipe for using Green Figs, Major pruning this week will make this an option. Conserve, Canned in Syrup, etc???

The Hillville Fire had run all the way to Rainbow Flat then entered Khappinghat National Park. From there it spread east to Wallabi Point, north to Tallwoods Village and and west to Mt Talawahl. It also burned south to the boundary of the Serenity Resort which adjoins the National Park.
It also burned almost right up to the junction of Old Soldiers Road and Figtree Drive at Moor Creek, about 1 kilometre north of my property. Fortunately favourable winds and cleared land at this point allowed a number of RFS brigades to slow, then stop the fires progress just short of the Old Soldiers Road and Diamond Beach Road junction.
The smoke in this image is coming from dried out swamp land largely made up of peat moss. Peat moss fires can burn for some time after such fires but a local RFS volunteer who lives nearby kept a close eye on it after the brigades were called away.
