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.

Bees are busy. The Wisteria drapes itself on a trellis on the front of our house and smells heavenly. Purple petals drip to form a carpet below and later velvety seed pods will hang like so many ornaments. Looking up they become lavendar wheels.
