   Perhaps if we ever get the backyard cleared of weeds and
   graded, i may purchase a fig tree (if I can talk my parents into it). 

No need to buy one, Barry.  They grow easily from cuttings.  Find one you
like in someone else's yard and ask for a cutting.  Or go to a Calif Rare
Fruit Grower's meeting (check out the exchange in January) and get a bunch
of unusual varieties for free or next to nothing.

Did ya know there were dwarf varieties too?
