I was checking out my Hardy Chicago yesterday and noticed one fruit loot a
little purple. I touched it and it just fell off. I tried to eat it, but
it was just dried out and tasted like nothing. Did I wait too long? Maybe
a frost got it? Perhaps it was just a dud or something. Last year it had
one fig and this year it has three. Maybe next year it will have a lot
more. I sure hope someday they will ripen properly so I can enjoy one.
