'Celeste' is known as the "sugar fig" - this is one of the best varieties for drying and for preserves, but also great for fresh eating. The fruits are medium-sized with a light brown or violet skin and a strawberry pink flesh. It is a compact plant that does well in containers and where space is limited. Fairly cold tolerant, with an early ripening main crop.
Northern fig trees don't need a pollinator, they produce fruit without pollination. A reliable producer in cool climates that is best suited for a cold greenhouse or pot growing in Nova Scotia. Northern figs are sub-tropical deciduous plants that need a winter dormancy period.
USDA Zone 7-10
