About the fig tree

I left my original backyard fig tree at my previous house where it's the main attraction in a tiny backyard.
My current fig will be espaliered
on a white, sunny stone wall. Training will be a bit tricky since the branches are so angular. I'll do anything for delicious figs—even fight with squirrels. Lately I've seen them beautifully potted as tall standards. That's my next project. Pictures to come.

A hatchling

Almost hidden, this baby is already a strong flyer. Let's see if I can track the change in color. I'm wondering how long it takes.
