Warning - Naked Figs on display

Post by Stewart_Toowoomba »

Hi all

Thought i'd show some of my figs as they've just had a fair to big haircut. It's great to see into the tree with a bit more clarity.

I've left some leaves on selected branches to continue growth but also realise that i need to get more backbudding on most branches as well.
It looked like a cyclone had gone through after the dust had settled!
Cheers
