Ficus carica ‘Celeste’
The Celeste Fig (Ficus carica ‘Celeste’) is a popular, medium-sized deciduous tree known for its sweet, small to medium-sized fruit and compact growth habit. It typically grows 10-15 feet tall, with large, deeply lobed green leaves. The Celeste Fig produces sweet, light purple to brownish fruit with a tender, flavorful flesh, making it a favorite for fresh eating, preserves, and baking. This variety is prized for its early harvest and ability to tolerate colder climates compared to other fig varieties. Celeste Figs thrive in well-drained soils and full sun, making them a great addition to home gardens and orchards.
