Description
From LSU Ag:
‘Champagne’ fig (Ficus carica L.) was developed by the Louisiana Agricultural Experiment Station (LAES) to provide a productive, good-quality fruit that ripens during the traditional fig harvesting period. ‘Champagne’ is a common-type fig and the fourth cultivar released from the LAES fig breeding program that was initiated in the 1950s to develop cultivars for the gulf south region (O’Rourke et al., 2004). ‘Champagne’ was evaluated in plantings at research stations located at The Burden Center, Baton Rouge, LA (long. 3024#3$ N, lat. 916#2$ W) and at the Citrus Research Station at Port Sulfur, LA (long. 2929#7$ N, lat. 8942#7$ W). This selection (L55-13-22) was chosen for release because of superior fruiting characteristics.
