Any information on where to find one and or which variety is best for our area?

Many years ago I was told by a nursery guy that you need to buy two or more fig trees because they need to cross-pollinate in order to bear fruit (male and female). Supposedly, having 3 increases your chances for success. So I bought 3 but never got any fruit.
