Bring me some figgy pudding

Actually, I'll take my figs fresh.

We have two fig trees in our back patio area. One in a bed along the house where it gets southwest exposure and reflected heat (good in our Western Washington climate), and the other is in a pot, which we can move as needed. Hard to believe the figs are developing already, with the chilly spring we've had.

That's a (badly) espaliered Victoria plum tree behind it, fyi. We had our first few plums last year, but it looks like we could have a bumper crop this year.
