FIG TREE

The fig tree, Ficus carica, was the most important fruit tree of the ancient Greeks. Fresh figs are among the most palatable and nutritious fruit. Dried figs are among the most healthy and nutritious foods.

The fig tree thrives in a variety of soils and can be grown even in hot and dry areas with calcareous soils and a pH of 8. Because the quality of the figs depends more than any other type of fruit, the soil and climate, you need to determine the most appropriate variety for each soil type and microclimate.
