'Salem Dark' Fig ( Ficus carica) Plants
Plants 3”-6” and well rooted. Requires special care in zone 5.
Cuttings coming soon.
Figs are hardy to zone 7/8, but are such resilient plants they can be strung along in zone 4/5 by keeping them in large pots that get brought into protected spaces in winter, or by pinning stems to ground and burying in a very deep mulch. Full sun and warm micro-climate are very helpful in the north.
Salem Dark - My most successful fig, moderately sized dark purple on the outside, red on the inside, very sweet with great flavor.
