This Cold Proof Chicago Hardy Fig Tree is the package deal when it comes to fruiting fig trees!The Ficus carica tree aka common fig is self-pollinating, meaning you only need one tree to have fresh fig production. The Chicago fig tree has a high yield of deliciously, sweet edible fruit that ripens in late summer or early fall depending on your location. The ripe fruit is medium-sized figs with dark mahogany color on the outside and deep purple inside, the same as Brown Turkey.The lobed leaves have an oblong shape compared to other fig tree leaves.

The delicious figs are perfect eaten fresh, used in jams or jellies, or dehydrated for later use. Bears fruit in the first year of tree planting.
