I fully expect my banana project to follow my ficus adventure. I despise figs (mushy) so I had no problems propagating 1" sticks that often bloomed the next year. I dropped a twig in the leaf mulch path of my garden fall of 2004; of course I didn't notice her until weeding the next year. And she did produce that fall - 2 little flowers.
While we're on the subject...
Some of the types I once grew...all unnamed...the large green was palatable. Made great ice cream!
Worried about some new babies, I put them in my bathroom when for winter. The flowers did drop off but proved to me that figs in February, given proper conditions, are possible even up north. (Sharpie is for size comparison.)
