SUMMARY:Fig Tree Pruning 2026
DESCRIPTION:Is your fig tree overgrown? Is it so messy and bulky you can no longer harvest the fruit? Or would you like to start a new fig tree? Fig trees require special pruning techniques to help them thrive and fruit abundantly. As Master Gardeners who have a passion for figs we can help you explore strategic pruning for size\, shape\, productivity\, or all three. Best timing for initial pruning and specific follow-up strategies will be demonstrated and discussed. In addition\, following the pruning we will have a rooting demonstration. Attendees will have the opportunity to take home a cutting to create their own Fig Tree. Dress for the weather\, bring your hand tools\, gloves and your enthusiasm. \n\n\n\n\n\nFicus tree in need of pruning.
