The text says nothing about the tree withering. You just made that up.
The text specifically says that there were no figs because it wasn't the season for it. Not because it was barren. It becomes barren after God curses it.
Withering is not mentioned anywhere. You are just making shit up.
Why would God curse tree without fruit? Why would he be surprised that there s no fruit when it's not the season for fruit AND he's all-knowing anyway?
For a normal human, that would be stupid behavior, for a god, it's just insane.
That's not what the text says.
So if this is just allegorical and didn't happen as described in the bible, how do you know that this doesn't apply to everything else in the bible?
It really happened, the fig tree was barren and then God made it to wither, it is a physical illustration, I'm not sure how else to say it.

So again, you made that up.
Yes He did: He said to it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again!” And His disciples heard it.
