Hirt's Violet De Bordeaux Negronne Edible Fig Plant - Ficus carica - 2.5" Pot

The Violette de Bordeaux Fig (Ficus carica) is also known as the Negronne Fig. One of the biggest bonuses of this very heavy fruiter is that it can give you two crops of juicy figs a year. It has an irresistible fragrance and a fantastic sweet, rich flavor. It produces small to medium purple-black fruit with the darkest red flesh of any fig. Some consider this to be the finest tasting fig. The Violet de Bordeaux is a natural dwarf tree that grows 6-10 feet tall. Its size makes it perfect as an accent tree for a small space. It would also be beautiful on a patio or deck. You and your family will love the Violette de Bordeaux as this small tree has endless possibilities. Eat fresh picked right off the tree or spread ripe fruit on toast for a fast healthy breakfast. Some say it tastes like the best jam they have ever had. For a mouth watering dinner impress your friends and family by wrapping fish in fig leaves instead of foil for cooking. This will keep the fish juicy and give it a delicious coconut flavor. * Self Fruiting * Low maintenance and hardy * Deer and Pest resistant Hardiness Zones: Zones 7 to 10 outdoors year round Zones 4 to 7 patio / indoors in winter
