I believe this tree has been discussed before a few times.
I have one growing in a container with figs on it. I have a few questions and a statement.
Statement first--The tree is growing in an odd shape. It reminds me of a helicopter with its blades at rest sort of sticking straight outward and drooping a bit. It's going to make it hard for when I have to tie it up and cover it to bring it into the garage for the winter. The limbs are far to thick to bend at this stage. Don't have a solution for that as yet.
Questions - At any stage of the fruit development from this tree does it ever require pollination?
The photos below will give you some idea what I am dealing with.
When the fruit looks like it's getting ripe but just before that time it shrivels up dries and falls from the tree. So far I have not eaten any and lost about 12 of them. Any reasons for that to happen with this variety. It's not happening with the other 19 or 20 other trees I have located in the same place on my black top driveway.
Look over the photos and if you have any opinions I would appreciate knowing them. I can't tell you where I received the tree from because the name washed off the side of the tub. Now I have it only in a 5-gallon bucket with plans moving it up to a 20 gallon in the next move.
Thanks a bunch.
