Product Review
Chicago Hardy Fig is considered a cold hardy fig that can produce figs on new years growth even after the plant freezes back. Most figs produce figs on prior years growth and have a second Fall harvest on some new growth. Chicago Hardy may produce a first Summer smaller crop, but will fruit mostly in the Fall. The fig is medium sized purplish-brown that has a good sweet taste. The Tree can get up to 15-30 ft. tall over 7-10 years.

For starter plants I recommend growing in a 4 inch to 1 gallon pot to allow your plants to get a little bigger then then re-pot or plant. Fig Trees can be planted in most healthy soils with normal pH range 6.0-8. I recommend growing in an organic potting soil with the fertilizer and beneficials already mix in. Keep your soil moist and when it is about dried out water again.
