Vancouver Fig and little rocks :)

Hello all,

Two years ago I bought a vancouver fig for two reasons 1) stated that it would bear fruit in first year and 2) highly suitable for the Pac NW climate.

Well, the first year it did bear fruit, if you call the little rocks that never matured beyond the size of a shooter marble fruit.

Year 2 was alittle better, but still the fruit did not mature. Granted, we've been a bit cool the last two summers.

The fig is about 4' tall and has 3 major branches with a few suckers at the bottom. It's very aeriated. I've got my fig in the sunniest spot on my patio in a large pot and it gets about 8 hrs. of sun a day. So I can't figure out why I'm not getting mature fruit?

Do I have the wrong expectations to get mature fruit so soon?

Thanks experts...this is my first fig tree :)
