My goal is to have enough (100+) tasty/ripe figs every season. I am ready to work and wait for 3-5 years to reach that goal. I will also be taking any efforts needed to winterize the tree. (move the container to unheated garage in the container stage and once in ground, wrap it up during winter
So does anyone in new england (zones 5a-5b) have a fig tree? What variety would you suggest? I am looking at hardy chicago, celeste
If you have a great tasting/successful fig tree in this region, would you be able to share cuttings? Is that the best way to propagate a fig tree?
Starlight, it just so happens that I have been thinking about planting a fig tree for last couple of weeks. Since our zones are quite different, I decided to start a new thread

Yep, our zones are just a tad bit different.
Glad you started a thread for the North too. Hopefully , lots of suggestions will be made for you and other folks in that zone.
