Cuttings are available in late November (Black Friday to Cyber Monday weekend). Trees are sold from April through November, with larger trees, dormant trees, and bare-rooted trees available in early November.

For fairness, I do not allow pre-orders. Each variety is sold on a first-come, first-served basis. Current inventory is reflected on the store and sales pages. Check back regularly or subscribe to the Fig Boss monthly newsletter at the top of the page for updates.

Here's a booklet I created to help you "fig-ure" it out.

Do some research on your location. What’s your USDA growing zone? What are your average first and last frost dates? What is your annual and monthly rainfall in inches? These are important data points because fig trees have 4 major constraints. Cold winters can damage their branches, humidity and rain can ruin the fruit quality, and a lack of summer heat or a short growing season will cause figs to ripen late or not at all.

For example, I am growing in the Philadelphia area. The varieties suited to my location will be cold-hardy, resistant to humidity, and will ripen early. Click each button to view a selection of varieties suitable for your location.

The Northeast, Mid-Atlantic & South as far west as TX, OK, KS, SD, ND, & NE, and wet areas within the PNW and CA.

Check the USDA plant hardiness zone map.

Northern climates or mild-summer areas like parts of the PNW & the UK.

Choose the best-tasting fig varieties in these areas based on my recommendations or your flavor/texture preferences.

Absolutely. I would love to. Here's what I need:

1. Photos of your tree's properly ripe fruits cut open in half. I need to see the inside and out. Include close-up photos of the leaf pattern. I cannot ID a variety without this information.

2. Your growing location.

3. The history of the tree. Where does it come from? Was it planted by seed?

Common fig tree problems include overwatering, underwatering, rust, Fig Mosaic Virus (FMV), and sunburn.

Check out this video to self-diagnose your fig tree. I've also covered these topics separately in various articles. Please use the search function at the top of the page to diagnose your tree's issue.

If you need more help, feel free to contact me. After I respond, you can use the paperclip icon at the bottom of the page to attach photos of the problem.

I apologize, but for privacy reasons, local pickups are not possible.

I don't sell fruits at this time. If that changes, I'll send out a notification through the newsletter and YouTube channel indicating where and when you can purchase them.
