Container Fig Trees and Ground Cherries: Splitting, Recovery, Pot Culture

Fig offshoot: Can't advise on figs—insufficient expertise.

Damaged fig: No specific guidance.

Ground cherries in pots: Depends on climate, type, pot size. Sweet cherries less hardy. Bush cherries (3–4' shrub) better for pots. See blog: eatyourlandscape.blogspot.com/2011/08/bush-cherries.html
