Description

Chicago Hardy Fig Patio Tree | Cold Hardy Fig Trees | Ficus Carica

*Please see shipped as shown photo in 4-inch starter nursery pot*

You’ll love the easy to grow Chicago Hardy Fig. It bears loads of the most delicious, medium sized mahogany-colored fruit, and as the name implies, it’s cold hardy enough to survive Chicago’s cold winters. (Hardy to zone 5 with protection during the winter.)

This fig tree is self-pollinating, so it can be grown successfully on its own, without other varieties present. This plant may die back in colder zones, resuming growth the following spring. However, figs will grow on new wood, so cold winters won't bother this plant! Heat and drought-tolerant once established.

Very easy to grow in containers on patios or porches. They thrive in full sun or dappled shade and typically begin bearing fruit within 2 years, making them a great return on investment!

*** First photo is a 2 year old potted patio plant. ***

Beautiful Plants

I just received my shipment of 2 Chicago Hardy Figs. So far so good. The plants came in a pot and potting mix, are quite tall with nice leaves. Much better than the one (single and more $$) I bought earlier in the year from another company - that one was small bare rooted and died quickly.

I’m anxious to see how they perform and will follow up on this review.

Chicago Hardy Fig

The two Chicago Hardy Fig trees arrived in very good condition in spite of being sent to Houston, Texas in July. Occasional ten-degree Fahrenheit freezes here destroy the tops of some fig trees and the roots as well of tender varieties like California Mission Fig. The Chicago Hardy has a purple color and "jam" fruit quality which sound close to the Mission fig, so I look forward to the fruit of this much hardier relative of the Mission Fig.

Got two small trees delivered and both came very healthy and in great shape. Replanted them and both are doing well. I bought a single plant from another online seller and paid twice as much and it arriver half dead. When I complained they told me that it would probably survive. Based on my experience buy from Easy To Grow!

Chicago fig

Received 2 plants, one w one leaf, the other one as a stick. The one w leaf seems to show a possible growth. The stick is not showing any signs of life yet.

Delivered in great condition. One is a chicago hardy but I believe the other is a mission fig tree which is all right with me! I repotted them and they have looked healthy for the the past 3 weeks! I definitely would order again!

Fig trees

I bought 2 fig trees a few weeks ago. The single leaf they both had fell off. I thought they were goners. Now I am seeing signs of growth on both. I have ordered soil and fertilizer suited for fig trees and will pot them as soon as it arrives.

So far so good!

I ordered two of the hardy fig trees and they arrived quickly and seem to be in very good condition. Since I got a late start on these, I'm keeping them in pots inside the house until spring. I am excited to see how they do next year!

Perfect little trees. Arrived well packed and look great

So far so good. Watering when i have to and they are getting plenty of sunshine. Itll be a couple years before anything really happens, I'll update then. In the meantime I would say the fig plants are doing well

So far so good

I’m in zone 10. I immediately opened the package on the day of delivery and transplanted them to big glazed ceramic pots. So far they are growing new leaves but still small. Hopefully I remember to return to this review in a few months to give an update, if allowed.

Great plants!

First, great price for two small trees. Came well packaged and in great shape. They waited until the fig trees could be planted to ship. The trees are loving the large pot they are planting in - sunlight and are all they seem to need. Wonderful plant and looking forward to figs!

I ordered two Chicago Fig plants. They arrived healthy and well packaged. However, only one is a Chicago Fig. The other is a different variety… possibly a Mission Fig. I don’t mind having two different types of figs, as far as flavor goes. I am concerned about the cold tolerance of the second fig though. I ordered the Chicago fig specifically because of its cold hardiness.

Received in excellent condition

Very pleased with the care taken to ship my Chicago Hardy Fig Trees to arrive as perfect as any specimen at my local nursery. Now if they survive my 6A winters, I will update this review and let you know!

They came in really nice condition. They're already starting to leaf out. And I'm trying to figure out where to put them so no Little critters will eat them. Thank you for taking such care I love them and I will order from you again

Nice starter

A little smaller than exspected but healthy. I gave one to a neighbor. It’s almost tripled in size.

Fig plants

I was very excited to get the fig trees. They were in rough shape when I received them (brown edges on the leaves). I planted them in a pot to keep indoors and I am very hopeful that they will come out of it.

Tree seemed a little dry. Leaves looked dry and wilted. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻
