The I-258 Fig tree is easy to grow, staying between 8 and 16 feet tall, depending on location. It has excellent disease and insect resistance. This self-fertile fig tree was brought to the US from Italy in the 1980s and is an excellent choice for short season climates such as ours in the Pacific Northwest.
