Properties and uses:
The Fig tree ‘de Marseille’ is a beautiful tree which will thrive in all gardens, even small ones.
This self-fertile fig tree has a good yield, once a year. The figs are a beautiful golden green and are very good when ripe (there is a drop of juice at the base of the fruit) around August. The figs are very sweet and can be eaten fresh right off the tree, used to make jam or eaten once dried.

Plant them now: the shortest way to your plate is through your garden!

Caution: The sap of the fig tree becomes toxic under the influence of the sun and the skin's perspiration: it can provoke allergies or skin' reactions which can go as far as burns. Make sure to protect your skin while pruning or handling the branches by wearing gloves and ensure that your children do not play with the leaves!
