Plant a Fig Tree
If you like the idea of an edible garden, there are lots of plants you can grow, which create vegetables suitable for your dinner table. But what if you want something sweet? A tree might be your best bet.
Though some climates can grow just about anything (those lucky Californians), chances are you can find a fruit-bearing tree that will thrive where you live. For instance, certain species of fig trees can thrive even in areas with shorter cooler summers, such as the Pacific Northwest.
Growing something from a seed can be a challenge, but you can skip the painful steps by ordering already-started versions. Bay Flora features Peter’s Honey fig trees, Negronne trees, and Lattarulla trees, all of which can be ordered from their online store. A $28.50 investment today could earn you deliciously sweet figs for years to come. Now that’s gardening even a non-green-thumber could work up enthusiasm for.
