My fig tree has started to
creep nearer to my conservatory so it’s time for me to prune it back. I’ll make
sure I don’t prune too harshly and leave this year’s figs that have formed.
Pruning back too far will mean loosing any fruit this year.
A few weeks back I
transplanted a Clematis that was in a shady spot and being eaten by slugs as
soon as the poor thing started to leaf up, it’s now growing up the Fig tree and
putting on lots of growth so will need to be tied in to support it. It will
give the area some colour for a month before the Fig starts to vigorously green
up!
