    I'm not sure you can actually get a mini fig tree.

    They can be restricted by growing in a pot.
    You would probably need the shelter of a south or west facing wall, in order to get any ripe fruit.

    I am growing mine in big pots in the polytunnel as it seems they tend to die off in our harsh winters.
