This little fig tree is kind of a botanical accident. Or, as Bob Ross would say, a happy accident.
This is Fignomenal® Fig, and the story behind it is pretty great.
Plant breeder Lloyd Traven of Peace Tree Farm was growing ‘Chicago Hardy’ figs when he noticed something very different on one plant: a single branch that was unusually short and absolutely loaded with fruit.
He initially thought it might be a witches’ broom (a strange abnormal growth that can occur on plants). Instead, it turned out to be something much more interesting.
What he discovered was a truly dwarf fig tree that can stay around 2–3 feet tall and wide, yet produces an impressive amount of fruit. In trials, one plant had more than 100 figs by July!
Fignomenal is actually a sport (a naturally occurring mutation) of ‘Chicago Hardy.’ It's self-fertile, so you only need one plant, and its medium-sized figs have deep brown skin and sweet, pink-red flesh.
So now you can have fresh figs without a giant tree taking over your yard.
Thanks, Lloyd. We love a happy accident.

Are you likely to get more?
Does it need to be brought inside for winter?
That is so cool. I had no idea when I planted my start from the Evergreen Garden Club sale a few years ago, that it would be a monstrous size tree!! 🌿💚

Sold out! 🙁
bummer - says sold out. 😭😭😭
UPDATE: SOLD OUT!
Wow! What a terrific response. Thank you to everyone that purchased a Fignomenal® Fig.
Be careful where you plant this!
Oh no!! I was gonna come pick one up today!
Awesome!!😎
This is a really cool shrub!
It wasn't bred in a lab. It was discovered by a Dutch grower in 2015 as a naturally occurring mutation on a Tatarian Dogwood. That branch turned out to have something special: foliage that emerges green, cream and pink, then develops even more color as the seasons change.
PLUS, check out those colorful stems. SWOON!
The only mystery we're still trying to solve: Why is it named ‘Sgt. Pepper’? 🤔
We haven't found the official story behind the name yet, but whatever the reason, we're pretty sure they nailed it with this plant.
Any theories on why it's called ‘Sgt. Pepper’? Drop them below! 👇

The person who named it was a Beatles fan?
I wonder if the vines stay red!?
If someone is allergic to dogwood pollen, would this plant be a problem?
Beautiful blooms? Yep.
Evergreens for the garden? Absolutely.
A few fun things to make your space feel extra cozy? Totally!
Plus nursery cats who steal the show every day? We've got those t#bremertoncitynurseryr#bremertonwat#pnwgardeninge#gardencentere#shoplocalL#pacificnorthwestgardeningening
