Video Description

In this video, I share 5 quick fruiting fig trees everyone can grow at home in almost any climate! Fig trees come from warm Mediterranean regions, so many gardeners in cold climates think they can't grow a fig tree. That's not true! Fig trees can grow as cold as Zone 5 (maybe even Zone 4)! This video features early fig varieties that can thrive in places with short growing seasons. Most fig tree varieties require a long, warm growing season to ripen. However, some early figs can re-grow from total winter dieback and still have enough time to produce a crop of ripe figs. This video features some of my best tasting figs that produce very early and make growing figs in short summer climates possible. I also feature fig growing tips to help ensure success and a fig taste test for every fig variety featured.
