{"product_id":"lsu-purple-fig","title":"LSU Purple Fig","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eLSU Purple trees are reliable and productive. This variety produces a breba in the spring, a main crop in July, and a late season crop in November. LSU Purple trees grow in a compact shape and can tolerate winter temperatures when planted directly in the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eLSU Purple was part of the Louisiana State University fig growing program that was begun by Dr. Ed O’Rourke in the 1950s. Dr. O’Rourke and his students bred fig trees for improved resistance to disease and suitability for growing in Gulf Coast climates. Many superior figs have resulted from this breeding program, which can be identified by the “LSU” in their names. Dr. O’Rourke’s paper on LSU Purple was published in the early 1990s, and the variety has been a staple in the fig community since then.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTerms and Conditions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e***Please be sure to read our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/amxops.site\/fig-faq\/\" target=\"_self\"\u003eTerms and Conditions\u003c\/a\u003e before purchasing cuttings***\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen do we ship cuttings?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNon-Rooted Cuttings(November\/December):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe begin to ship cuttings once the trees are dormant and in a shippable state.
