  • I have a fig tree that is top heavy and hasn’t got a lot of branches. What can I do?


Fig trees grow very quickly and pruning them when they are dormant and some summer light pruning is important for fruit production. Many people find their fig trees growing too tall. It is possible to top a fig, meaning to cut the main stem down.
