Description

All my figs are container grown in Wisconsin. Cuttings were taken in late OCTOBER after trees had gone dormant and have been stored in a fridge at 37-40 degrees. You are bidding on 2 dormant unrooted cuttings of 'LSU Purple'.

'LSU Purple' was introduced by the Louisiana Agricultural Experiment Station in 1991. The figs are medium in size and weight. The fruit is long turbinate, with a distinct neck. Fruit quality will improves on older trees. The skin on the fig is glossy, with a reddish to dark purple color. The flesh of the fruit is a light strawberry color when ripe. Fruit quality will improves on older trees. Grows well in containers! Heat-tolerant.

*********************************

I’ve been growing and trialing figs in southwestern Wisconsin for 30 years. My focus was on container figs which will ripen in Wisconsin without a greenhouse, but now that I have an unheated hoophouse & I’ve been putting many varieties in the ground.

I am sacredgroveorganics on eBay and run a Facebook group called NORTHERN FIG GROWERS which has several thousand members.  I also sell cuttings of currants, grapes, elderberries, willows, kiwis and scionwood of pears and mulberries.
