Planting & Care Instructions

Where to Plant

  • Sunlight: Give your fig at least six to eight hours of direct, hot sunlight daily for the best results; while it can handle partial shade, the fruit production and flavor intensity will suffer significantly.
  • Soil: Figs thrive in a rich, well-drained loam; if you have heavy clay, incorporate plenty of coarse compost and perlite to ensure the roots never sit in standing water. For container planting, use a quality potting mix without excessive water-retention materials.

Watering Requirements

During the first year, keep the soil consistently moist to encourage a strong root system, which is critical for potted figs. Once established, this fig has good drought tolerance, but for a great harvest, provide deep, consistent watering, especially when the fruit is swelling. Inconsistent watering during this period will stress the plant, causing fruit to drop prematurely or ripen small and flavorless.

Pruning Tips

This dwarf fig generally requires minimal pruning, but all figs fruit best on new growth, so prune in late winter while the plant is dormant. The goal is to open up the center to allow light and air in, and to remove any dead or weak branches right above an outward-facing bud. Think of this work as shaping the plant for maximum sun exposure, which directly impacts fruit quantity and quality.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a balanced, slow-release granular fertilizer, such as a 10-10-10 formula, once in early spring as new growth begins and again in mid-summer. What you should avoid is a high-nitrogen feed in late summer or fall, because this encourages tender, new foliage that will not have time to harden off before winter, leading to cold damage.

Sunlight: Requires full sun (6–8 hours per day) for best fruit production.

Watering: Water regularly, allowing the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings.

Pruning: Prune lightly in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and encourage fruiting.

Winter Care: In colder climates (zones 6 and below), bring your Fig indoors during the winter months.
