Planting:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003ePlant your Little Ruby Fig in an area that receives full to partial sunlight (6 to 8 hours of sun daily).

Add a mixture of your natural soil and organic planting mix to the container before you place your tree in it. Place your tree, then water until you see water coming out the bottom of the pot. Place your Fig Tree in front of a sunny window and allow the top 2 inches of the soil to dry before watering again\u003c\/span\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2. Watering:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFig Trees have a fair drought tolerance. Once established, they will need a deep watering once every one to two weeks. Feel your soil - if it feels like it’s drying out close to the surface, then it’s time to water your tree. Trees kept in containers will often need more water than those planted in the ground. Water your trees more often during times of extreme heat or prolonged droughts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3.
