Magnolia Fig is a common smaller deciduous fruiting tree in the south that has a longer fruiting season at the cost of souring faster due to the fruits’ open eye. It has an interesting winter silhouette and lobed palmate blue-green leaves. The sweet-smelling fruits are produced in spring and summer and ripen to a bronze-red with amber flesh. Highly adaptable, but provides the best fruit in full sun and well-drained soils. Great for containers.
