Make sure the spot in your garden is appropriate for your fig tree. Does this spot have good sun/shade ratio? Is this spot free of underground structures like septic tanks, wires, pipes, etc.? Can roots spread adequately? Plant tree in hole big enough to accommodate root ball, water well!

The best time to plant the Fig tree is in the fall when the leaves have fallen. You should water the hole you will put the tree in and make sure the roots are saturated. Put some manure in the hole as well. Surround planted tree with mulch for drainage.

Use a dolly to move the container to the garden, lay the tree on the ground, gently work it back and forth until it loosens up and slides out. Then gently slide it into its new home.
