Mine is very small right now. But I hear that when they are small they need a lot of light and grow very slowly as they work on growing their roots and later on they grow very quickly. Is that correct?

I suspect they will. What variety is this?

I've got cuttings of about 40 additional varieties this year. Gone a bit overboard, perhaps....

My aunt is about to yank up her fig trees(big ones). I have one in a pot. I got half a dozen figs off it the first year I had it.
