That's great to hear! I actually bought a fig tree at the beginning of spring and it grew a foot over the summer, even sprouted ONE fig. I was enthralled! I'll keep trying the sunny window! Thanks!Christina I live in NY and the Winters are bad here but we cover them really good with tar paper and also bring some in the garage. I even kept one small one in the house in a sunny window. You could try that.
Awesome, I am near Detroit too, as are my parents, who have a fig tree in their backyard. They said the figs did not grow as well this summer. They do have a bunch of adorable little gourds though!I'm super jealous of those of you that have fig trees in your yard! There's no shortage of apple trees here in Michigan, but figs I only get to enjoy it once a year! I spend top dollar on them and then I give them to my tortoises ha ha!
I have a lime tree in my front window (that faces south) and it seems pretty happy. I'm hoping that in the winter when the sun is closer to the horizon, that the little dude will grow some limes. He's grown a lot in the past year. I recommend the sunny window.That's great to hear!

I got one of those lemon trees, but it never got a lemon, so I made it into a Bonsai. It looks cool, but ..no fruit.I have a lime tree in my front window (that faces south) and it seems pretty happy.
