care tips
The soil should be well-drained and nutritious and preferably not too acidic, but rather calcareous. Pruning increases the fruit yield and the plant also looks neater. It is best to prune the plant in the period between November and February, but not during severe frost. Prune superfluous side and main branches. This fruit tree does very well in the any Spanish climate. An adult Ficus carica can endure temperatures of up to approximately -10 °C.
