 That being said, when can I start expecting flowers on the fig plant? Well, if you get flowers on your fig plant, I want to see those flowers, baby. Shame on you. Those are not flowers, my friend. Those are part of the stem. That's the fruit. It's a good trivia question. It's the only fruit tree in the world that does not get a flower. It gets eight. Is that right? Yes, sir. That's a fact check for you.
