Indian Laurel Fig 'Green Gem' Multi

This is a beautiful tree with glossy, thick slightly undulating, green leaves that densely clothe the stems. This fig may become a tree, or it can be kept as a low, dense hedge or even grown as a tall screen. This variety is especially resistant to thrips, and it tends to grow more densely than the species.
