As the name suggests, Strawberry Fig has strawberry-colored flesh that is quite striking against the green skin and is very flavorful. It is drought tolerant once established and it does require a fair amount of heat to achieve its best flavor but is a great choice for those in shorter seasons. They are prolific producers and can be grown in the ground or in a pot. Fruit occurs from late summer to late fall. 

 

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Figs are very hardy plants with vigorous root systems. Plant them in an area where roots can spread out. They also respond well to pruning which should be done in winter when tree is dormant.
