growing towards the light

we're in the heart of winter now and i'm starting to feel like a plant that badly needs some sunlight to build chlorophyll...

i photographed this picture out of a danish magazine. must make a mental note to buy a fig sapling. but where to get one? my mother has a fig tree in the garden and maybe i could cut a twig and try to make it root like i do with geranium but it seems more difficult with a wooden stem.

ps: you think geraniums are the most uncool plant on this planet? not necessarily so! i'll show you some pics...
