we planted a fig tree about 2 months ago and it doesn't look healthy. Hardly any new leaves, if any at all. The existing leaves are yellowing. It's in a fairly high alkali soil.
Any help with a fig tree?
Its probably just taking a nap. Young trees (figs 'specially) like to sleep alot.
Has it been hot and dry for you? You don't mention location/zone.
Just keep it well watered, NOT overwatered, and a little light fertilizer. It should bounch back well in the spring, if it doesn't do a little growing in the fall.
Reply:I am having the same problem. We have had a hot dry summer in my area. I like the fellows answer above. Mine did perk up a little when I mulched around it. Probably keeping the soil a little cooler, and holding some moisture.
