Description
This variety was obtained from Bass, unsure of original source. The fruit is clearly darker than a standard Celeste, some fruit almost black, while the flavor seems like the usual Celeste. Leaves appeared like a standard Celeste. Fruiting started about three weeks into fig ripening season hear in Western PA. This is a second year plant which was just planted a few months ago, so I am unable to determine anything about productivity yet.
