Italian Everbearing Fig

As the name suggests, Italian Everbearing originally comes from Italy. In frost-free climates like the Mediterranean or southern United States, the everbearing trees can bear fruit every couple of months, all year round. Even in colder climates though, Italian Everbearing is able to become dormant during the winter months and continue to produce figs as the weather warms. These productive plants grow in the shape of a bush, rather than a tall tree. New shoots often emerge from the base of the plant, which allows it to spread. However, Italian Everbearing also makes an ideal plant for small spaces with some careful pruning.

The amber and light red pulp often has hints of berry, strawberry, or tropical fruits. Italian Everbearing Figs are larger than typical Brown Turkey figs and have a round shape. The figs are covered in dark skin that ranges from dark red, to purple, to black. The skin often has a starry pattern of white dots.

When do we ship cuttings?

Non-Rooted Cuttings(November/December):

We begin to ship cuttings once the trees are dormant and in a shippable state. Exact timing is weather dependent, but we usually start in November. Shipping continues throughout the winter and early spring. We stop shipping when the trees begin to break dormancy, normally around mid-March.

**All non-rooted cuttings ship between November and March regardless of the date selected during checkout. Orders placed during our pre-sale period(October/November) will ship out first in November/December. If you are rooting your cuttings in the spring, our cuttings can be kept in the refrigerator until you are ready to root them. They will be perfectly fine. That is what we do and they've turned into our most impressive trees.

Rooted Cuttings(Spring):

We begin shipping rooted cuttings once they are mature enough to ship. The shipping period typically begins late April and continues into June. Regardless of the date you select during checkout, we will ship when ready during that span. Please do not ask for ETA's or specific arrival dates. You will receive an email when your order ships with UPS Ground tracking details.
