*Please see shipped as shown photo in 2-3" starter nursery pot. Leaves may shed upon arrival, which is perfectly normal and healthy. This is how your plant gathers energy to grow into a hardy Fig Tree.* You’ll love the easy-to-grow Chicago Hardy Fig. It bears loads of the most delicious, medium-sized mahogany-colored fruit, and as the name implies, it’s cold-hardy enough to survive Chicago’s cold winters. (Hardy to zone 5 with protection during the winter.) This fig tree is self-pollinating, so it can be grown successfully on its own, without other varieties present. This plant may die back in colder zones, resuming growth the following spring. However, figs will grow on new wood, so cold winters won't bother this plant! Heat and drought-tolerant once established. Very easy to grow in containers on patios or porches. They thrive in full sun or dappled shade and typically begin bearing fruit within 2 years, making them a great return on investment!
