Size of tree

Our fig trees range in height from 1 to 3 ft. in our field. The trees diameter (caliper) is often 1/4 to 1/2;*As noted by University of California Scientists and other qualified professionals the most successful trees often have caliper from 1/2" to 5/8" and usually establish faster than smaller and larger planting stock. .
