Peter’s Honey and Ronde de Bordeaux figs…

Figs are currently sitting at #1 for our no-spray fruit trees.

These figs are so delicious. Where have they been all my life!!!

My son and I have both determined that Peter’s Honey is the best fig this year so far. Each fig is two large bites of gooey honey. Mmmm

It is the only tree ripening in-ground at the moment though… as it is said to hate being in a container.

Being in-ground always brings the fruit to a much higher level. Going to put a few different types into the ground this Fall.

Fig trees take 3 to 5 years to begin making their best fruit. I cannot wait!!!

The red one in the second pic is either Ronde de Bordeaux or Violette de Bordeaux. They are a berry flavored fig. They are BOTH amazing… and at #2 favorite this year. RdB actually ripens way sooner than most figs in exsistance… and keeps going until Fall. Plus it is naturally dwarf.

Still have about 10 varieties yet to ripen a fruit.

Your figs look fabulous! Do you mean the fruit size and flavor will get even better when the trees reach 3-5 years old?
Please share the harvest photos of the other varieties when they are ready.

Yes. The fruit will get larger, sweeter, more flavorful, and even have more color. Just have to keep them happy and don’t let them get too many trunks.

I sure will be posting more pics on the future.
