Subject: Location of Chicago Hardy Fig Replies: 5
Posted By: nomnom Views: 226
 
Hi!
I have a Chicago Hardy Fig on it's way! 
I'm in zone 5.  Sometimes it says 6. The location I selected is a protected alcove with south and west sun. between the house and the hot tub.  It seems good for the tree, but I'm now concerned for the house. How far away from the house is necessary to prevent damage to the foundation?  I read about burying a pot and drilling holes in the side to direct the roots away from the house.  Does this work? Is it accurate that the CHFig will reach 10-12 ft tall?
Thanks.
