Very robust, unpretentious and high-yielding variety from America. The only fig variety that also thrives in a colder and shady location. Suitable for fresh consumption as well as for jam production and drying.

Vigour: weak, older trees reach a height of approx. 2.5 - 3 m outdoors
Blossom: parthenocarpic, forms fruits without pollination
Fruits: medium-sized, average weight 50 g, round, crimson-brown when fully ripe. Flesh amber yellow to strawberry red, taste sweet, rich and aromatic.
Harvest season: twice bearing variety. The first weaker harvest occurs in July and the second rich harvest from September to October. Very productive, early bearing variety.
Disease resistance: in our conditions, sensitivity to fungal diseases or pests is not known
Frost resistance: up to -18°C

We should not plant young fig plants directly outdoors. Only after three years in the container with frost-free wintering are the trees stable enough to withstand stronger frosts. A sheltered, sunny location in the garden must also be chosen for frost-hardy varieties, which sufficiently protects the tree from cold northern winds. The soil should be rich in nutrients and well drained. It is advisable to provide winter protection, especially for younger trees. The root area can be protected with a thick layer of mulch made of leaves or straw.
