Fig Trees

Figs can be grown in colder climates if they are pruned as a bush and covered in winter or grown in a tub and winterized inside. In warmer climates, figs are reluctantly deciduous. They are culinary delights, wonderful for fresh eating, jams and dried fruit. Trees are self-fertile and will bear 2 to 3 years after planting. Plant in full sun for best fruiting. Space 10 to 12 feet apart.
