- Planting & Care
- A heritage French variety from the 17th century, producing two delicious crops each year.
- Harvest sweet, yellow-green figs in early summer and again at the end of the season.
- Its compact, bushy size is perfect for large pots on patios and balconies.
- A reliable choice for British gardens, this hardy tree is well-suited to the UK climate, tolerating both wet and cold conditions.
- The honey-sweet figs are perfect for eating fresh from the tree, roasting with a drizzle of honey, or baking.
- Adds a touch of the Mediterranean to your garden with its beautiful, deeply lobed leaves.
- Species: Fig
- Features: Self fertile
- Harvest Time: June, August
- Position: Full sun to partial shade
- Ideal for: Beds & borders, Pots
- Habit: A compact fig tree that has a tendency to grow outwards just as much as it does upwards.
- Eventual Spread: Spreads approximately 2-4m.
- Hardiness: H4 - Hardy down to temperatures of -10°C. Wrapping your fig tree in a burlap or hessian sack will help protect it over the winter months.
- Soil Type: For the best growth, plant your fig tree in soil with good drainage but that's still somewhat moisture retentive. Preferably, your soil will also be fertile and rich in organic matter.
- Pest & Disease Resistance: Rarely troubled by any diseases or pests.
- Tasting Notes: 'Goutte d'Or' figs boast a fabulous honey-like sweetness.
- Uses: Eating fresh, roasting, drying and baking
- Planting Time: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December
- Spacing: Plant 3m apart to allow for spreading.
- Watering: Fig trees like 'Goutte d'Or' benefit from frequent watering, even once they're well-established. It's particularly important that you water your fig tree during hot, dry weather, or if you're growing your fig tree in a container.
- Feeding: Fig trees benefit from a good feed with a high-potassium fertiliser during the springtime, whilst those fig trees grown in containers need a weekly/fortnightly (depending on the manufacturer's instructions) liquid feed throughout the growing season.
- Pruning: Figs benefit from being pruned twice yearly (once in the springtime and then again in summer).
Product Specifications
- Height on Arrival: 60-90cm
- Eventual Height: Grows to a relatively compact height of between 1 and 2.5 metres tall.
- Supplied As: Premium plant in a 3L pot
- Time to First Crop: It will probably take three years or so before your fig tree starts bearing viable fruit, and sometimes might take a year or two longer than that.
