Great video. I’m in Michigan and grow in pots. If I could only grow one fig, it would be Smith.
We had several large fig trees when I was young. I loved eating them. We had four pear trees, about 8 plum, and about a dozen peach and apricot trees too, and we always grew a very large amount of cantaloupes, red,. and yellow watermelons and all sorts of other foods. We even grew our own peanuts, corn, potatoes, peas, beans, squash, tomatoes, eggplant, turnips, rutabagas, cucumbers, broccoli, cabbage...you name it. I`m amazed that I moved to this rural Louisiana lot and there are NO FRUIT TREES here or wild walking onions! There will be soon!
Thanks fir the info. I’m just got my first gif tree today… Italian red Sicilian!

Back home in Nablus, Palestine we used to have very large Fig tree. This tree was taller than three story building where I used to live, it was a few feet taller than the three story. The width of this tree approximately 25 to thirty feet.
During summer time, I used to climb this lovely tree and pick up thirty to forty figs almost every day. The fig used to be very large I would say four to five figs almost a pound.
I loved this tree because it was part of my childhood, I was almost eight or nine years when I started to climb this tree.
The sad thing about it is the that my brother cut it because he was living on the first floor of our building and he want to expand his living space and the only place was is to cut this tree and add a living space.
I was really saddened when I heard he cut this fig tree, I loved this tree, it is in the Holley place of Palestine.
Sorry to make you sad.
Haha, I just asked you what the biggest and sweetest variety is in a previous video then watched this. 😂 Great job! And thanks for getting to the point
The video showed up on my youtube timeline again, and I had watched it several weeks ago, and last week I came across Longue D'Aoute Fig at a nursery and added to my selection. Thanks for sharing info about your figs.
Definitely a super star fig 👍
@@RKfigs Do you by any chance sell LDA cuttings? I bought a LDA from a nursery but the fruits do not look like LDA at all.
It's always very helpful when you identify the growing area you're speaking from(4a-9b?). Thanks
Exactly, here in Gulf Coast 8B, the humidity and heat and rain can change which fig will work. Closed/small/sealed eye are what work.
Thank you for a great video with the questions most of us ask. I enjoyed your honesty and candor. I will be trying some of the varieties to suggested. Again, thank you!
I prefer the varieties that have a small or closed eye. Currently I have lsu purple, BT, Celeste, Chicago Hardy. Beers black, Violet de Bordeaux. Just started my first propagating of Smith, and an unknown. Humidity and high temperature here in Florida are the battle along with root knot nematodes.
BNR and CDDMutante are the most beautiful IMO
I have CDDB and BBN I don't have those 2 that you specified. Thanks for sharing.
@@RKfigs nice, I have cddb only. When do you head start your cddb or how do you manage to get them to ripen in your season?
you’re expert of figs!
Good informative video !
Thanks for watching 😁
Thank you very much for all this valuable info.
This are base on what you have or what you can grow in our zone right? Cause there’s so much better than what you mention other than that great content
These are the best figs for the zones without the fig wasp. So unless you live in the Mediterranean or in other fig wasp zones, these figs will be the best for you. Also they do well in colder growing zones like zone 7 and below. If you are in a cold zone and have some suggestions let me know. Cheers!!
Good video, enjoyed it
Thanks for watching, 😊
I want trees to grow in my yard in N. FL that will produce figs from spring till fall.
Great great video
Thank you. I'm glad you liked it 😊
Thanks 👍🏻
I loved the vieo!
I want a berry tasting fig.
I have a fig which is about 4yrs old and is more like a bush i.e. it is about 3m high but 4m in spread , it gave a breba crop with10 brown figs,each about 250gram in weight, however although juicy they have not much flavour. Living in the South of Britain I wait to see if the massive main crop will ripen. I have no idea of it's variety , my other note is that the leaves are not deeply "branche into the typiacl 5 fingers ?
Great info! Thanks!
Cheers, thanks for watching 😊
Amazing informative video👍👍👏
Glad you liked it
What do you think of LSU purple?
I hear it's a great fig once the tree is more than 3-5 years old, but it's not a fig I currently have.
Do you think Desert King would work in ground in Zone 5 if protected?
Yes if it's protected properly! I have done it and I know some others that have done it also.
Panache Tiger Fig 🙋🏻♂️💚🤍💚
Hi buddy great info do youvsell Lonbue D aoute cuttings .im van Canada
Celeste fig
Celeste is good but Improved Celeste is definitely earlier 👍
For tropical zones? What is most prolific?
Do you sell cuttings? Do you think these will do well in zone 8a in Louisiana? I`m partially disabled and food has become too expensive to buy. I stopped going to stores. I`m planning to do my very best to get a garden planted and fruit trees started on my lot. But I`ve been buying parts to finish my emergency solar power system so I can have at least some air conditioning after hurricanes and have electricity for cooking and refrigeration when the power fails. Plus it can power my electric tiller and mower if I ever lose my small check. Can`t afford to put gas in a generator for two weeks or even two days and I have no transportation anyway. I did buy a small generator that can recharge my freezer batteries with one gallon of gas and provide 50 hours of electricity for that and 5 hours of air conditioning at the same time or put some charge into my main large battery if it gets too low to avoid damaging it.
WA state, zone 8b, is there better than Brown Turkey that can grow here in a pot outdoors?
Yes any of the varieties mentioned in this video are better than brown Turkey. I also recommend desert king in ground
This video killed me!!!! Now i am hungry for figs. I have a fig on my property. Is there any way to tell what kind it is?
Yes I'm always hungry for figs, they are so delicious! The best way tell me roughly what area you are in and send....
1. Picture of the Leaf
2. Picture of the outside of a fig
3. Picture of the inside of a fig
also let me know if it produces a breba and a main crop or just a main crop.
@@RKfigs I have been back through almost 4k photos on my phone and only have a couple. I am in N TX zone 8a. how do i get you the photos i found which are of the leaf only? or should i wait until I can take photos of the fruit too?
@@tracybruring7560 this summer take pictures and let me know. I can't tell with just the leaf.
What zone are you growing Figs?
My question is where do I buy fig trees? They are hard to find.
What country are you in?
@@RKfigs Canada 🍁 Sounds like you are as well.
@@gioknows RkFigs.ca head to this website and you can buy fig trees and cuttings
@@RKfigs Awesome. Cheers from Ottawa.
way to make the most annoying video...
