About Fignomenal

A great fig to grow in summer containers, topping out at 20–28” without pruning. Plants will fruit twice a year, even when brought inside for the winter, if given adequate light. Good flavor. Prefers slightly acidic, fertile soil with good drainage. Begins to produce fruit after 2–3 years.

Originated as a spontaneous mutation from a Chicago Hardy fig tree.

About Fig

The easiest indoor fruit. Best in an outdoor container for summer, then moved indoors or into an attached garage or root cellar. Fruits late summer until frost. Fig trees moved indoors often lose all their leaves, so cut back on watering until new leaves sprout. Can be pruned to make an even smaller tree. Self-fruitful.
