Fig Trees

Fruit Plants, Fruit Trees, Fruit Bushes & Nut Trees

Hardy varieties of figs will easily grow throughout the UK right up to the north of Scotland.

An ideal plant for container growing. Root growth restriction encourages the fruiting, so if you wish to plant your fig outside, use some manner of restricting the root size such as setting the potted plant into the soil, or grow it in a smallish box, or ‘box in’ the root area with pieces of slat or patio stones.
