'Bornholm's Diamond' Fig Tree
- Not all fig varieties are particularly cold hardy, but this one certainly is! Capable of withstanding temperatures down to -20°C (and even below), 'Bornholm's Diamond' is one seriously rugged customer.
- First found on the island of Bornholm in the frigid Baltic Sea, it's no wonder that this variety can tolerate a bit of bad weather thrown its way. Like all fig trees, though, best fruiting will, of course, occur when the weather is warm and sunny.
- Producing an abundance of sweet and jammy purple figs towards the end of summer, this tree is relatively compact (2.5m) and well-suited, therefore, to courtyard gardens and smaller, Mediterranean-style spaces.
- Eat the fruits fresh, dry them to keep on hand as a sugary snack, bake in a pie and serve with vanilla ice cream, or whip up a fig salad with nectarines, blue cheese and a honey vinaigrette.
- Fig trees have highly distinctive, lobed foliage which, along with the tree's bark, radiates a lovely aroma.
- Figs fruit best when their roots are restricted; this can be achieved by cultivating them in a container, using a purpose-designed root control bag, or using rubble and paving slabs when planting.
