It’s hard to beat the flavor and health of a ripe fresh fig. Col de Dame figs ripen for me during the month of October (sometimes earlier and sometimes later).

The experience of eating a fresh fig is a marvels en I truly believe that if you’re to grow one type of fruit tree in your garden space, make it a fig tree! They ripen early and do not need pollination from another tree!

Hey Fig Fam! Here is a beautiful French variety of fig called Blanche de Deux Saisons and it’s a delicious cold, hardy, and early ripening Fig - the reason why it’s ripening at the end of September is because it is a younger fig tree, so it hasn’t gotten its full growth cycle established yet. I was really impressed with the deep berry flavors of this Fig and the small ostiole on it that would allow it to thrive in humid climates as well! This is a great figure to grow anywhere in the country and get that nice Adriatic coloration and a beautiful flavor profile!

Hey Fig Fam! When the fall weather comes through and the sun is lower in the sky - it’s time to consider removing the summer sun barriers that were once needed in the peak of summer days! This will allow maximum solar exposure and help keep cooler and damper conditions away from your figs and fruit trees and avoid diseases and help ripen fruit still on the trees!

Good to make changes to the garden as the seasons change!

Hey Fig Fam! This amazing fig is known for its bright green skin and in contrast with a deep red interior that tastes of rich berry flavor. Coll de Dama Gegantina is a Col de Dame Blanc that grows larger and at a faster rate then the Blanc and tastes just as good! It has a permanent home on my patio but may be in the ground soon! Simply an amazing fig! Are figs still ripening for you in the fall?!

Hey Fig Fam Jeremy Troski is one of my buddies and has a question on his happy, growing fig tree! It’s looks like his fig took off a little late in the season and may not ripen fruit in time before winter but I anticipate plenty of figs next year.

It’s happens with maturing trees and I hope all is well Jeremy. Thanks for every you do!

Has this happened to you before and will they ripen in time?

Hey Fig Fam! One of the best figs you’ll ever get your taste buds on are the Coll de Dama and Col de Dame figs and this one is one of the most beautiful of them all with it’s variegated green and yellow stripes with a w**e red interior. This fig from Mallorca has it all and does well in many conditions as long as you have a longer growing season. Have you seen a fig this beautiful? Unbelievable fig right here!

This fig is a top favorite for me and it’s so delicious I will grow it forever. It ripens mid-seasons, to slightly early in the season. Tastes of sweet strawberries and honey. Can be harvested still slightly firm and it will still be sweet and full of honey it also does well in humid climates and will only split occasionally during times of high rainfall. I’m always so impressed with this fig that I post about it on a regular basis!

Who loves sweet dark figs like this one?!

Hey Fig Fam,

This fig is a big ball of honey - yellow long neck is known for its large, golden-yellow figs that are mild in flavor and so sweet! This variety was cultivated at UCRiverside and given out to the fig world. They do require up to 10 days to ripen which is a lot hang time but seem to do well in a variety of climates z very please with this one as a whole and it’s one of my favorites
