Fig - Ficus carica 'Little Miss Figgy' (Ficus carica 'Majoam')

Ficus carica 'Little Miss Figgy' - exceptional cultivar, compact (small) suitable for narrow spaces or growing in large pots. At maturity, the plant reaches a height of up to 1.8 - 2 m and a crown diameter of up to 1.2 m. It is also known as Ficus carica 'Majoam'.

Ficus carica 'Little Miss Figgy' is a natural mutation of the variety 'Violette de Bordeaux', and was discovered in 2010 by Michael Nobles in his garden in South Carolina, and was later patented.

The fruit stands out for its special, sweet-aromatic taste and intense, almost black color. The peel of the fruit is of medium thickness and pleasantly fragrant, and the productivity is high. The fruits ripen throughout the July-September period. Branching can be stimulated by cutting the tips.

Resistance in the garden. Withstands up to -20°C without significant losses. Resistance increases as the plant matures, the root system develops, and the branches become thicker . It is recommended to protect by covering the plants in the first years with microporous film (anti-freeze film, Agril type film, etc.). The cases of frost in fig trees mean damage to the aerial parts - but the root remains alive, and the plant re-enters vegetation in the spring.

Resistance to diseases and pests. Figs are considered ' pest free '.

Parthenocarpic variety - it is self-fertile and does not require a pollinator.
