We bought our first Fig tree from the tamu place last weekend. I first heard about fig trees from my colleague last year whom is a facebook fan of one of the local fig farm. She told me that both the fig seedlings and fruits are expensive but the demand is good despite of the price.
Fig is a nutritious fruit contains minerals, vitamins and fiber, vitamin A, B1, B2, Calcium, iron, phosphorus, manganese, sodium, potassium & chlorine. It is good to control and lower blood sugar level. With that reason, we try to plant fig tree at home. We bought a small plant in a poly bag and transplanted it to a pot with the soil mixture recommended by the nursery.

We also bought a packet of 6 pieces figs fruit (RM16.90 for 160gm) from the local mini market. Marking our first time trying fresh fig fruits.
I tried dried figs before. Sweet and inside is seedy. Never taste a fresh one.
ReplyDeleteGood luck in your fig planting. Shouldn't be a problem as not much maintenance and care needed.
I like to eat fresh figs and also figs in soup. Hope your fig tree will give you lots of figs.
ReplyDeleteHow clever of you! It'll probably die in my hands. Hahaha! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI don't think I have tasted fig before. Yeah..heard that it is very expensive.
ReplyDeleteNever try this kind of fruit, very interesting.
ReplyDeleteWould be fun if you could grow this yourself! Hope your plant does well.
ReplyDeleteHave never heard or tasted fig before
ReplyDeleteI often ate dried figs but had no idea how they looked in fresh fruits. Thanks for sharing.
