Booklet on Growing Figs

This 57-page booklet provides the basics of fig culture. It provides an overview of fig biology, growing figs in the ground or in pots, and a list of fig varieties. It also provides tips on nutrient, water, and sun requirements of fig trees, and it provides tips on pruning. This may be all you need if you are growing figs for the first time. I was hoping for a book, rather than a booklet.
