Monrovia® Chicago Hardy Fig, also known as Ficus carica 'Chicago Hardy', is a variety of fig tree that is known for its ability to withstand colder temperatures compared to other fig varieties. It is a deciduous tree that can grow up to 15-30 feet tall and wide. The Chicago Hardy Fig produces sweet and delicious fruit that ripens in late summer or early fall.
This fig tree is well-suited for growing in USDA hardiness zones 5-10, which means it can tolerate temperatures as low as -10°F (-23°C). However, it is important to note that even though it is more cold-hardy than other fig varieties, it may still require some winter protection in colder regions.
When planting a Chicago Hardy Fig, make sure to choose a sunny location with well-draining soil. Regular watering and occasional fertilization will help promote healthy growth and fruit production. Pruning can be done in late winter or early spring to maintain the desired shape and size of the tree.
