aka Fig Edible

The delectable and desirable fruit of the Fig is full of calcium, iron, and Vitamins. This highly ornamental tree produces medium sized fruit with green skin and red sweet flesh. Will crop best if grown in a warm sheltered spot. Harvest fruit in summer and again in autumn. Deciduous.

It is important not to let your Fig tree dry out completely in summer as this will affect the fruit. Pick your figs towards the end of summer (when the fruit bends at the neck) and leave 2 to 3 days to soften before eating. This variety will store well in the fridge.
