Celeste fig 'Ficus carica' 6 to 8 inch Sweet and similar items

Celeste Fig (Ficus carica 'Celestial') is one of the most widely planted Fig trees in the United States and with good reason. This Fig tree produces such sweet and delicious fruit that it often goes by its nickname, the "Sugar Fig". It earns its nickname each summer with scrumptiously sweet fruit that has a rich, buttery-smooth flavor and texture. The fruit is not only delicious - it's beautiful, too. The fruit features edible, violet skin and rose-colored, strawberry-like flesh inside. Celeste Figs can be eaten fresh for a delightful treat. No need to peel, you can eat the skin and all! The fruit also dries perfectly for long-term storage and easy snacking. The tree itself makes an impressive specimen. You'll love the distinctive, deep-green lobed Fig leaves that grace the tree all summer long. The leaves have such a wonderful, tropical shape and the branches have a nice-looking structure. It's a self-pollinating tree, so you only need one tree. It's a medium-sized tree that doesn't need a lot of pruning. It will stay small enough for you to easily harvest your crop. Celeste Fig is disease resistant. It's also heat tolerant, versatile and adapts beautifully to most climates. Well known to be a vigorous grower in the more humid climates of the South, Celeste shows itself to be a more compact grower in the drier climates of the Western and Southwestern United States. This tree produces well in coastal areas. It even performs well in large containers. The plants are currently shipping at anywhere between 6 and 8 inches. No pots included.
