Exactly that is why the leaves are above the breba, the breba figs they are totally separate growth from every things else, a breba crop does not have it’s own leaves or vegetation. All vegetation that grows on old wood is

Sorry but you are very confusing here. You said breba are below the stem. What are you calling a stem? There are stems all over a fig tree. Stem is another name for a branch. Are you talking about the stem of the leaf? That’s better called the petiole. Any branch even 2-3 yrs old can be called a stem.

Just say old wood/breba and new wood/main. A stem can be also anything on a fig tree.

I meant leaf stems. I will fix what I wrote above to make it less confusing.

You are welcome. Yes fig trees are very unique and confusing. The ones that produce fruit their fruit skin are the flower petals, the figlets are flowers that turn in to a fruit with a fruity inside. If you think the common fig is confusing, other types are even more confusing.
