Pastilliere Fig

A beautiful bright purple fig with flavorful strawberry colored flesh. It often ripens an October crop in the Pacific Northwest where most others fail. It is a good companion to varieties like Desert King which ripen only a summer crop. It is thought to be a Japanese variety called Hirta that was introduced into Europe in the 19th century. This variety is grown from tissue culture and has been heat-treated to significantly reduce the presence of Fig Mosaic Virus.
