Aglaia mas, I can't believe this sad news. As you know, I have tried so many of your wonderful fig recipes, using figs from our own so prolific tree on Andros. And like you, pride myself on never having had to buy figs. For different (age/health) reasons, we were unable to get to Andros this summer and had to be content that friends were enjoying them. I still have a couple of sykomaides in the fridge and so some sliced figs in the freezer from next year. All my sympathies, xox D
Maybe not in that exact spot, difficult with the fallen roots etc all around, but we are planning to eventually plant a new fig tree somewhere suitable later in the fall, when hopefully we will have some rain…
I dream of having a fig tree somewhere, someday. I’m sorry you lost yours!

So happy your fig trees are going strong in Andros! Have a wonderful fall!
Such sadness when a tree dies that has given so much. Much more than fruit! Hope you are able to replant in the space.
