Description
From Cistus Nursery:
A Cistus introduction...yet another Hardy fig. We wonder where it's been all our lives. Native from Northern India to western Iran and Afghanistan and a delicacy there with its small, dark, very sweet fruit. We have selected this form from seed for its entrancing, filigreed, silver-green leaves of about 5-7". So far, ours have been for external use only as we have not tasted the fruit. Eventually might reach 15-20 FT in height; can easily be kept smaller with pruning. Sun to part shade. Very drought tolerant once established. Frost Hardy to the upper edge of USDA zone 7 so far.(synonym) Ficus Johannis
