Description

Fignomenal is a cold-hardy edible fig sold under that trade name. Like other Ficus, it belongs to the mulberry family (Moraceae).

What it is: This listing is a plant sold as Ficus Fignomenal, a cold-hardy edible fig (Ficus carica type). Container size depends on pot and pruning—not outdoor orchard heights. Our photos show typical fig foliage.

Light: Bright light suits edible figs grown in containers; give the strongest indoor light you can without scorching new leaves. A grow bulb helps in short winter days.

Watering & care: Water when the top of the mix begins to dry; do not leave the pot sitting in water. Outdoor summer spells need more frequent watering.

Humidity: Medium home humidity is usually fine; very dry air can stress leaves (NC State Extension). A room humidifier helps in winter; a pebble tray gives only a small, local boost.

Temperature: Keep it warm and away from cold drafts; NC State Extension suggests temperatures above about 13 °C (55 °F) for common indoor Ficus (NC State Extension). Clemson HGIC suggests roughly 16–18 °C (60–65 °F) nights and 24–27 °C (75–80 °F) days for rubber plants, avoiding sudden drops.

Winter indoors: In winter, keep it away from cold windows, drafts and heating vents, water less often as growth slows, and still check the mix before watering. Avoid moving it often if it is a weeping fig, which can drop leaves after a move.

Expected indoor size: In a container indoors, size depends heavily on pot size, pruning and care rather than outdoor landscape heights. How large yours gets depends on light, warmth, pot size and care, and we can't promise a particular height or leaf size.

Feeding: Feed lightly in spring and summer while it is growing (Clemson HGIC); our Schultz All Purpose Plant Food works at a light dilution. Ease off in fall and winter.

Pets & pests: The milky latex sap can irritate skin; gloves are wise when pruning (NC State Extension; Clemson HGIC). Ficus is toxic to dogs, cats and horses if chewed or eaten (ASPCA; NC State Extension). Keep it out of reach of pets and children. Watch for scale, mealybugs, spider mites, thrips and aphids (NC State Extension).

About your plant: Every plant is a little different. Size, fullness and leaf count vary from plant to plant and change with age and light; young plants may not yet show mature leaf features, so we can't promise a particular leaf size or shape. The size option (1 Gallon) refers to the pot diameter. It does not guarantee an exact plant height, trail length or leaf count. Photos show typical plants from our greenhouse, not the specific plant you will receive. The shared gallery image shows other Ficus as inspiration.
