Tree

The Sarilop fig tree variety (Ficus carica “Sarilop”) depends on the presence of a caprifig for pollination. The caprifig, a male plant that produces flowers without edible fruits, plays a crucial role in the pollination process of female fig trees such as Sarilop. Therefore, the proximity of a caprifig is imperative to ensure optimal fruiting of the Sarilop fig tree.

Sensitivity

The Sarilop fig tree thrives in a Mediterranean climate, showing frost resistance up to zone 7. However, it is sensitive to significant frosts, requiring sunny and wind-sheltered planting to mitigate frost risks. Regarding drought, although Sarilop can tolerate arid conditions, it benefits from adequate watering, especially during growth and fruiting periods, ensuring its health and productivity.
