I am in hardiness Zone 7b...
I propagate about 40-50 fig trees every Spring from cuttings from 20+ fig trees. Mostly brown turkey. Anyone that would like to try one or two is welcomed to a plant free. From the tip of the roots to the top of the plant they are about 3 ft tall. I'm not sure how I would mail one, but if you have ideas please let me know. I can send pictures to anyone that is interested... via email.
As for fig leaves as a food source, never heard of that before. Fig leaves are very scratchy on their under side. But I will smoke some sometime and try them. Thanks for the information.
