I have a very good neighbor who "air layered" his fig tree in several places. It seems as if they all worked quite well, and being the gentleman he is he asked if I wanted to try one. of course I said yes. The start is about 4' tall and about an inch in D. It has a couple of little sprigs at the dirt line and several buds on the way up. I am thinking seriously of putting it in a somewhat larger container and keeping it there. Any and all hints, helps, and comments are welcome.

Being in Florida, you shouldn't have a problem with it. I'd just make sure that it is safe from any surprise frosts or freezes. I don't think that it would care what size pot it's in, but I'm not sure about that.
