    If you see sap, then you should stop pruning. While it should be in dormancy, a warm spell can start to bring it out. This year has been funny with the weather, so the tree may be a bit confused if your area has experienced the highs and lows many parts of the country have.

    It may be a nitrogen/phosphorus imbalance in the soil. Too much nitrogen and too little phosphorus can result in little to no blooming, which means no fruit. This article should help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/figs/fig-tree-is-producing-fruit.htm

    The fig fruit is actually the flower of the tree with both the male and female parts. So no, you do not need two trees in order to get fruit.
