Fruit & harvest

Pollination: Self-fruitful; does not need a second fig for fruit.

Growing & care

Care & pruning: Grow in a large draining container in full sun. Protect the container and roots in winter and prune damaged wood in spring. Wear gloves if sensitive to fig sap.
Harvest: Pick soft, fully ripe figs that droop on their stems. Color changes vary by cultivar; firm green fruit will not ripen properly after picking.
Winter: Use a protected site and mulch the root zone. Overwinter container-grown figs indoors.
