Now northern gardeners can enjoy growing delicious figs at home. The plant will die back to ground level in the colder climates, which is normal. In the spring the plant will grow back and produce fruit again. You can protect them with a layer of leaves held in place around the base of the plant. ‘Chicago’ Hardy Fig plants have striking, vibrant leaves that have a similar shape to oak leaves, only much larger. Self-pollinating. Spacing: 3-6′. Chicago Hardy’s fruit will be sweet and ready to eat by late summer or early fall.
