This question reminds me of my childhood. It seems that it has not been so common in more than eight years.
In 1990, I remember that only my aunt had one. That's a white fig, very cute. We want to eat every holiday.
Then it was about' 97. I remember the adults saying never mind. Just leave it there. It can also satisfy children's desire, so every household will plant one. You can sit on the tree and eat it when it comes out. Very sweet.
Later, after eating foreign fruits, I realized that the unique geographical environment in Weihai made the nutritional value of figs higher than that in other places. The sweetness is also much higher.
The trees in my family have been planted for 15 years. Later, it was cut down for demolition.
