Is fig a shade-loving or sun-loving plant?

Do figs prefer shade or sun?

Fig is a sun-loving plant. The plant likes to grow in an environment with sufficient light, especially during the fruit-setting period, it needs to be given sufficient light, otherwise the plant may grow poorly.

Figs in the sun

Fig is a light-loving tree species with relatively high requirements for light, requiring more than 5 hours of light a day. If there is insufficient light when the fruit is hanging, the fruit will be small and less sweet.

Figs can be exposed to the sun, and the plants are not afraid of direct sunlight. However, the newly grafted fig branches must not be exposed to direct strong light, otherwise the survival rate of the transplanted plants will be reduced.

Fig growth habits

Fig is a deciduous shrub with strong growth potential and can grow many times. It prefers a warm and well-lit growing environment. The most suitable growth temperature is 15-20℃, and the requirements for soil are extremely not strict.

Figs are relatively tall and the plant has high requirements for light, so they are generally planted in the courtyard, specifically in the southeast corner, because this place is responsible for the fortune of the eldest daughter in feng shui, and is suitable for families with daughters.
