Bundle (2): Geaux Tigers! LSU Purple & Gold Figs

Experience both worlds with the Wellspring Gardens Fig Tree Bundle, featuring the LSU Purple and LSU Gold Fig Trees. The LSU Purple Fig, known for its sweet, medium-sized fruits with glossy dark purple skin, can grow up to 30 feet tall, thriving in USDA Zones 7-10. The LSU Gold Fig, a petite powerhouse reaching 8-10 feet, dazzles with its golden exterior and light red interior. Both trees are self-pollinating, require full sun, and well-drained soil. Arriving as young, 3-8 inch plants, these fig trees are grown through superior tissue culture methods, ensuring healthier and faster-growing plants that will bear fruit sooner. Embrace the seasonal dormancy and watch your figs flourish in spring, producing bountiful crops. Prevent fig rust by maintaining a clean area under the trees. Add these Mediterranean delights to your garden and enjoy the beauty and bounty of Wellspring Gardens' LSU Purple and Gold Fig Trees.

• MATURE SIZE & CARE GUIDE: The LSU Purple and Gold Fig Tree bundle from Wellspring Gardens offers a delightful contrast in your garden. The LSU Purple Fig matures up to 30 feet, and the LSU Gold Fig reaches 8-10 feet. Both varieties thrive in USDA Zones 7-10, require full sun, and well-drained soil. These self-pollinating fig trees will enhance your garden with their lush foliage and bountiful fruit production.
• SIZE UPON ARRIVAL: Your fig trees will arrive as young, eager-to-grow plants, each standing 3-8 inches tall in 3-inch-deep pots. Despite their small size, these baby figs come with a robust growth potential, ready to be nurtured into prolific fruit producers under your care. They’re perfectly packaged to ensure they start their journey to maturity on the right foot.
• ADVANCED TISSUE CULTURE GROWTH: Both LSU Purple and Gold Figs are cultivated through superior tissue culture, ensuring healthier and more vigorous plants that bear fruit sooner than seed-grown counterparts. This method produces strong, disease-resistant trees with narrow stems that will grow robustly and start fruiting within months, providing you with an abundant harvest.
• SEASONAL DORMANCY AND RESILIENT GROWTH: These fig trees may arrive without leaves, a normal condition during cold weather. Rest assured, this dormancy phase is vital for root system strengthening. Come spring, you’ll witness a burst of new growth as the figs respond to increased light and warmth. The flexible stems and green buds are signs of their health and readiness to flourish.
• COMBATTING FIG RUST FOR OPTIMAL HEALTH: The LSU Purple and Gold Figs are ideally suited for Mediterranean climates but can face fig rust in humid or rainy areas. This non-lethal condition affects leaf appearance but not fruit quality. Prevent fig rust by keeping the area under the trees free from leaf debris and avoiding wet leaves. Copper fungicide sprays can help maintain the health and appearance of your fig trees, ensuring a bountiful and beautiful garden.
