Notes: One of the most popular fig varieties for Florida. Especially tasty, brownish-purple fruit produced twice each year late spring and late summer. Attractive garden tree or large shrub with bold branching structure that has an interesting appearance when dormant in winter. Fast grower that needs light annual pruning to shape to prevent the plant from becoming leggy. An easy fruit to grow, but always tends to have a little RUST on the leaves. Fertilize 3 times per year during the growing season with VerdeGo’s slow release Citrus & Tropical fruit fertilizer for optimum growth and fruit production.
