Grow Your Own Olympian Fig Tree
The Olympian FigTree (Ficus carica) is an exceptional fruit plant, perfect for anyone looking to grow sweet, extra-large figs in their garden. This variety is particularly well-loved for its purple, delicious fruit, which is perfect for snacking, baking, or making jams. Each order includes 3 starter plants in bare root form, ready to be nurtured into a healthy, mature tree. These bare root fig trees are grown through tissue culture, which allows them to produce fruit faster than those grown from seed. Enjoy the beauty and bounty of your own fig tree.
