Fig Tree Question
« on: September 28, 2008, 15:27:09 »
I have a fig tree that is growing in corner of my garden in a large plastic container. Its been badly neglected and the leaves are all yellow. The tree is not dead but the branches have become very leggy. Does anyone have any tips on what I can do now to revive it ?

I've also got a fig in a container and the leaves are yellowing - it's just the plant getting ready to drop its leaves.  There's a good link here about renovating:
