In ideal conditions, this fig tree matures to about 8 to 10 feet tall and wide, making it a great option for urban gardeners, small yards, or patios. With proper care, it reliably produces two harvests a year, one in late July and another in early fall, delivering as much as 10 to 15 pounds of figs per season.
Italian Honey Fig Tree Care
Perfect for first-time growers, the Italian Honey Fig is a self-pollinating fruit tree, so there’s no need to plant a second tree for fruit production. It’s also drought-tolerant once established! The tree’s closed-eye fruit helps prevent spoilage and splitting, making it an ideal pick for regions with summer rain or humidity. All it needs is full sun exposure, at least 8 hours per day, and well-draining, loamy soil. Water thoroughly during the first year as the tree establishes.
