No Gopher-proof Fig Roots

Categories: Fruit Growing

Is it necessary that figs should be grafted in some other roots to keep

the gophers from destroying the trees? What root should I order?



Figs are not grown on any other than fig roots and are generally

propagated by rooted cuttings for the purpose of avoiding the expense of

grafting. The fruit must then be protected by killing the gophers rather

than by an effort to get the tree upon a gopher-proof root.
