     Hey Sile…. 100% increase in yield, and I got to have one all to myself! I had to share last year!

   I love fresh figs with blue cheese. Used to have them all the time in Australia. Yum

     Fiona, if we get a further 100% increase in yield next year… we will have 4 and can try a blue cheese recipe! 🙂

     Mona the taste was delicious… so juicy! I think it was another one of those €4.99 jobs from Dunnes or Lidl… we have it about 5 years!

     Mairead, I know! I saw some at a visitor centre quite near here and thought we’d give them a try… so was thrilled when we actually got fruit!
