This attractive garden tree produces wonderfully sweet, light purplish brown figs with pink flesh that ripen in late summer. One of the hardiest of its kind, Chicago Hardy endures colder zone 6 winters. So it does well in our zone 7 climate on the Cape. This is a vigorous grower once established in the ground. It needs plenty of space and grows to 12' x 12', losing its leaves in the winter. We don’t wrap it and leave it in the ground and it has thrived. It does like a protected area.
