Fig or anjeer (Ficus carica) is a hardy deciduous fruiting shrub or small tree producing soft, sweet, richly flavoured fruit eaten fresh or dried. Well-adapted to India's warm, dry regions, it tolerates heat, drought and poor soils once established, fruiting generously with little care. Its handsome lobed leaves give a Mediterranean character, while it grows happily in the ground or in large pots on terraces. Figs can crop within two to three years and often bear twice a year in favourable climates. Nutritious, low-maintenance and quick to reward, fig is an excellent choice for home growers.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I water fig?

Water moderately, about once or twice a week, more during fruiting and peak summer. Once established the fig is drought tolerant; avoid waterlogging.

How much sun does fig need?

Fig needs full sun, at least 6 hours daily, and fruits best in warm, dry conditions with plenty of light.

Is fig safe for pets?

Ripe fruit is non-toxic, but the milky sap and leaves can irritate skin and mouths, so keep pets from chewing the foliage.

When should I repot a potted fig?

Repot every 2-3 years during winter dormancy into a larger, well-drained pot; figs actually fruit well even when slightly pot-bound.

How do I propagate fig?

Fig roots very easily from hardwood cuttings taken in winter; air-layering is another reliable method, giving true-to-type fruiting plants.

Why are my figs dropping or splitting?

Fruit drop often comes from irregular watering or shade; splitting from heavy water after a dry spell. Water evenly and ensure full sun.

When does fig fruit?

Fig can fruit within 2-3 years and often bears twice a year in warm climates, an early summer crop and a later main crop.

Can fig be grown indoors?

Fig needs strong sun and a winter rest, so it grows best outdoors or on a sunny terrace; it does not fruit reliably indoors.

Is any part of fig toxic?

The fruit is safe and nutritious, but the white sap from stems and leaves can irritate skin, so handle pruning cuts with care.

What fertilizer does fig need?

Feed compost or manure with a balanced NPK twice a year, easing off excess nitrogen which encourages leaves at the expense of fruit.
