Want to grow a fig tree that does more than survive? This practical guide shows how to match fig varieties, planting methods, pruning, watering, winter protection, and harvest timing to real growing conditions across the United States and Canada.

Growing Figs covers the complete cycle of fig tree care-from choosing a site and cultivar to planting, container growing, irrigation, feeding, pruning, propagation, winter protection, pest and disease diagnosis, ripening, harvesting, and preserving the crop.

Special attention is given to the questions that matter most to North American growers: common, Smyrna, and San Pedro figs; breba versus main crop; caprification; growing figs in containers; protecting fig trees in cold climates; managing humid conditions; growing in short seasons; and adapting care to the Northeast, Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Pacific Northwest, California, the dry West, and southern Canada.
