    I have a 4 year old Violette de Bordeaux Fig Tree in a large pot. It is fruiting and seemed to be doing well until recently when many of the leaves started curling and easily falling off. Please see the attached photo with examples of curled leaves circled in red. It has been quite wet (as usual in the pacific NW spring in May). A 2 year old desert king fig lives happily in the same vicinity and in similar conditions. I have fed both figs on alternating weeks of Alaskan fish (5-1-1) and morbloom (0-10-10) fertilizer.

    I've recently moved the fig in question to a location with more direct sunlight but I'm not sure sunlight is the problem. One curled leaf exhibits red veins - other than that no discoloration.
