Common Fig 'Violetta'
Ficus carica 'Violetta' | Also known as: Hardy Fig Tree 'Violetta' | Rating: votes | Print / Pdf
Ficus carica, or the Common Fig, is a wonderfully hardy tree that will provide you with the most delicious figs. And there’s nothing more satisfying than eating the fruits of your labours… It’s an easy plant to grow, and will cope with pretty much any location as long as the soil is well-drained. It’s popular to grow this in a pot, as the roots can extend for some distance, as well as the fruits being more tasty and juicy if you grow in this method.
