Figs can grow into large trees but can also be kept small by pruning them as shrubs, allowing them to be grown in the smallest of backyard or Patio spaces - an advantage for urban edible landscapers. Ficus caricas are very productive and have a mild sweet flavor. Fruiting begins in May and lasts all summer long. Trees are cold hardy and tolerate cold temps. Zone 7-10. Fruits are great for baking, jams, sauces, drying, freezing and fresh eating. Makes a wonderful Bonsai project. 5 random cuttings for self-rooting (Texas Everbaring, Brown Turkey, Celeste) no label.
