Four tomatoes and a bunch of figs. Grapes are slowly ripening but the heat has taken its toll. The fig, on the other hand, has done nothing but thrive.
OMG figs!!! The fig tree I planted last year didn't survive our very mild winter. Not sure what that's about. Thankfully, given the drought and high temps I put off trying again this year. Next year, maybe?
Before you do away with it -- we called this fig tree "the stick" for several years, because it was literally just a stick in the mud ground. Then one spring it sprouted leaves, then grew a few tiny figs. Now it's a good size -- maybe 6-7' -- and it's covered in figs. So you never know!
I've got a stick the city planted on the boulevard in front of my house that I've been babying due to the drought and outrageous temps but it's looking pretty sad.
