Petite Negra Fig (Ficus carica 'Petite Negra') is a charming and compact fruit-bearing tree that is prized for its sweet and flavorful fruits. This deciduous fig tree is an excellent choice for home gardens, offering not only delicious harvests but also ornamental value with its attractive foliage.
It boasts dark green, lobed leaves that create a lush and appealing canopy. The tree exhibits a bushy and compact growth habit, making it suitable for smaller garden spaces or container cultivation. Its diminutive size doesn't compromise the abundance of its fruit production.
This petite fig tree typically reaches a mature height of 4 to 6 feet, making it an ideal choice for those with limited space or who prefer a manageable-sized fruit tree.
The figs produced by the Petite Negra are small to medium-sized, with a rich, dark purple to almost black exterior when fully ripe. The flesh is sweet, juicy, and has a delectable honey-like flavor. The fruits are perfect for fresh consumption, drying, or adding to culinary creations. Most figs are self-pollinating, and the Petite Negra is no exception. However, providing a variety of pollinators in the vicinity can enhance fruit production.
It is well-suited for USDA hardiness zones 7 through 10, thriving in a Mediterranean-like climate with warm, dry summers and mild winters.
