Hi there,
I have recently purchased a potted fig tree. It is a 'verdino fig'. I have read some things about not watering much (once a month) in winter and also letting it winterize, but I wanted to ask a couple of things that I am not sure about:

1) How much should I be watering it at the moment? The current temperatures here in North Italy are roughly the same asSouth UK I would think. It's not hot but not cold, about 14-17 degrees Celcius at the moment during the daytime. I touched the soil today and it was dry so I watered the tree, but don't want to overdo it as I read about roots rotting if the soil is too damp.

2) It currently has some fairly soft small figs on it, that were there when I bought the tree from a nursery a week ago. Should I leave these on the tree and let them fall naturally or take them off?

Thanks in advance!
