Black Genoa Fig

Excellent flavoured large fruit with greenish purple skin and dark red, rich sweet flesh.  A reliable, heavy cropper with two crops a year.  Vigorous, spreading tree. Fruits in February for three months. Use for fresh fruit, drying and jam. Figs prefer dry hot summers but need water when fruiting, and prefer well drained but fertile soil. Full-sun. Self-Pollinating.

Note: figs dont enjoy being transplanted and will often die back. There is a chance that it will shoot from the root. If your fig isn't spouting, please be patient, keep watering it and hopefully it will shoot up from the roots.
