Fig 'Chicago Hardy'

This is my recent purchase from the Morton Arboretum plant sale.  I never thought I could have a fig tree in Glen Ellyn, but now it seems possible.  This variety is called 'Chicago Hardy' and will grow to 6' annually as long as winter protection is provided.  I didn't site it in a particularly warm microclimate as instructed but will be sure to mulch and wrap in burlap this winter.

I'll post updates as the fig grows.  It's about 16" tall now and very healthy.

  1. I purchased a Chicago hardy 2 years ago. I planted it in the spring. I died in winter, after a year. No fruit. Chicagoblog.

  2. Thank you for creating such a fantastic website. I've been a fan of yours for three years and have read nearly all of your works; in fact, you've helped me academically in a similar way like I get much help from https://www.buyessay.org.uk/best-college-essay-writing-service/ that online tutoring does.

  3. Literally, this question never comes to my mind, but thanks to you for providing this question along with the answer. I am sure your other blogs have similar amounts of information. Therefore, I want to visit all of them, but first, I have to find a Finance Essay Writing Service for my sister. It will rarely take an hour, and after that, I will come back to your blogs and read them.
