Fig and other special fruit trees for Central Europe 

Figs were cultivated in the days of 

classical Greece, and are native to 

Asia Minor, Greece and North 

Africa. But did you know that fig 

trees in Central Europe can be 

successfully grown? 

In Fruchtfeige (Ficus carica), we 

distinguish a variety of fruits in the 

colors yellow, mature green, red, 

blue and dark purple and taste 

harvested on a sunny day, very 

sweet and juicy. The varieties also differ in leaf shape, Wuchsstärke and frost 

tolerance. 

mercato verde for many years, testing over 400 Feigensorten to outdoor culture. 

The best of these are cultivated and offered for sale. The culture in the garden 

is important that a sheltered from cold winter winds, north-east room of the 

house or on a garden wall there. The location should be warm, must not be 

very sunny! 

mercato verde offering varieties that have proven to be robust in our climate. All 

of our fig trees are selbstfruchtbar and carry on north of the Alps at least once per 

year, wonderfully sweet fruit. (Many other species are dependent on the 

fertilization of a small Cynips, which does not occur north of the Alps.'s Why the 

disappointment is huge, when mature, the yield as a souvenir from the South 

brought with fig trees in the summer all the fruit or not this autumn!) 

How well do fig trees survive a winter depends not only on rainy days, but also by 

wind, soil and moisture. Young plants should therefore be provided with a layer of 

mulch and a windbreak. They survive the winter without problems. 

References with variety names often do not guarantee for varietal identity. 

Therefore used mercato verde always the same starting material and 

guarantees listed in the description of properties of the fig trees. 

As a special fruit dishes, we offer you additional Ziziphus jujuba (Chinese date-), 

Prunus dulcis (Almond fruit) and Diospyros kaki (Kakibaum).
