HARDY CHICAGO FIG

Strong, robust, healthy plant! I've pruned it and it has grown back even stronger. Very beautiful plant.

Unbelievable growth rate.

I planted a small sapling with 7 tiny leaves in a five gallon container (50% compost/50% potting soil) a little over 2 months ago and it is now just shy of five feet tall.
