Califfo Blue

Ficus carica Califfo Blue

Blue-purple fig
The Califfo Blue is an exotic delicacy from our own garden. As the name suggests, the fruits color blue/purple and have red, sweet flesh. The Califfo Blue is hardy.

Pollination
Self-pollinating.

Pruning
Figs are hard growers, but are easy to prune. Best time is December-March, but not during frost. The most and most beautiful fruits grow on short wood, so do not cut all short branches.

Fertilization
Give the plant some organic fertilizer in winter.
