Description

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

Durio Nursery describes Alma as "This heavy bearing, very sweet fig was released from Texas A & M University's breeding program in 1975.  It has golden brown skin and very tasty, amber-tan flesh.  It has a small eye which prevents spoilage during adverse weather conditions.  The plant is a hardy, small tree with a heavy main crop that ripens very late.  The medium sized fruit are delicious.  Good fresh or dried.  Highly resistant to fruit rots.  Well adapted to the Southeast but tolerates cooler temperatures."

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

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.
