Thompson & Morgan Thompson & Morgan Fig carica Little Miss Figgy 5 Litre Potted Plant x 1, Multi

Discover 'Little Miss Figgy', the ideal solution for fig lovers with limited garden space. This dwarf mutation of the renowned 'Violette de Bordeaux' fig tree combines compact size with abundant fruiting capability. Its ornamental, lobed leaves provide lush coverage, making it a charming addition to any garden or patio. Despite its small stature, 'Little Miss Figgy' delivers juicy, smooth-skinned figs that are perfect for fresh eating or culinary delights. Enjoy the convenience of harvesting two crops annually, ensuring a continuous supply of figs from spring through autumn. Heightening your gardening experience, 'Little Miss Figgy' thrives in a sunny, sheltered spot—preferably against a warm, south-facing wall. It favours well-drained, slightly alkaline soil enriched with compost or well-rotted manure. To control its growth, consider planting in a large patio container or constructing a root-limiting pit with broken stones. Regular repotting every two years in John Innes No. 3 compost keeps it vigorous and productive. For those opting to train it against a wall, install support wires beforehand to guide its growth.
