Olympian Fig

Olympian Fig

Self-fruitful. Two crops a year: July and (smaller crop) later in the season. Large purple-red figs. Excellent flavour.

Grow in a large pot and bring inside for the winter. Trees require chill time at 1-4 degrees C in the winter. Plants can be left in a garage/shed hovering between 1 to 4 degrees Celsius for a week (typically ~Dec). Prune them then if needed. Then bring back into the warmth to start them growing again. Once it’s warm enough to set your figs outside again, be sure to harden the plant off, as the tender green leaves won’t handle freezing or strong direct sun after being inside.
