White Marseilles Fig Tree

White Marseilles is a honey-flavored fig with a green exterior and yellow interior. This variety originated in southern France and was brought to the US by Thomas Jefferson. It is a mid to late season fig variety that usually starts producing in the late summer months. White Marseilles is a fast-growing variety that produces a significant amount of new wood each year when given adequate water. It produces heavy crops of medium-sized figs that are great for fresh-eating. This variety is widely-adapted, cold-hardy, and a great option for northern growers.
