Cold Hardy and Versatile Fig that Produces Large, Sweet Fruit
The Olympian Fig is an award-winning variety originally discovered in Washington State (in Olympia) by Denny McGaughy. This fig tree produces large, sweet, fruit with tender purple skin and violet flesh.
The Olympian Fig is cold hardy in Zones 6–10 and thrives in regions with cool summers or areas that experience warm, dry heat.
The Olympian ripens in July and is ready for harvest in late Summer to early Fall. It is self-pollinating and doesn't require as many growing days to produce fruit. As an added bonus, the Olympian is not bothered by pests or diseases, making it a truly self-sufficient fruit tree.
The leaves of the Olympian are large and tropical with a spreading habit, adding visual interest. It is a versatile tree that can be planted in the ground or in containers, and can even be brought indoors for the winter. In areas with a long growing season, figs can even bear two crops in a year, so you can enjoy even more delicious fruit!
The cold-hardy Olympian Fig is a truly low-maintenance and versatile tree that makes it easy to grow fresh fruit right in your own backyard. Order yours today!
Planting & Care
Planting: After unpacking your plant, allow a few days for it to gradually acclimate to full light exposure. Plant your fig tree in a spot that receives full sun to part shade and has well-drained soil with organic matter. Use standard potting soil if planting in containers. Be prepared to re-pot as it grows.
These figs are hardy down to 0°F, but it is recommended protecting your tree if temperatures drop below 15°-20°F for extended periods by covering in-ground trees with a Frost Blanket or bringing container plants into an unheated garage or indoors.
Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season, but do not allow the soil to become soggy.
Fertilizing: Fertilize early in the season with a well-balanced fertilizer or with a slow release fertilizer for container plants.
Pollination: The Olympian Fig is self-pollinating, which means you will get fruit from only one tree.
