Description

You are purchasing a set of 2 fresh Violette de Sollies fig cuttings.

Pierre Baud Collection

2021 produced very impressive cuttings that are thick with closely spaced nodes.  Limited amount offered.

Pruned to order: CLEANED, LABELED, VACUUM SEALED

I rank Violette de Sollies in the flavor category with Preto, Genovese Nero, I-258.  It quickly climbed to my 'keepers list' when it ripened before all of the mentioned figs.  Amazing berry flavored flesh with hints of cherry flavored skin!  An absolute wonderful flavor combo.  Ripens in September in zone 7.  No pollination needed!

Aliases:  Burjassot Negre, Barnissote Noire, Bourjassotte Noire, Parisienne, Violet

Your cuttings, at minimum, will reflect the following:

6" long  ~  3 nodes  ~  thickness of a Sharpie Marker

 

French Fig Farm's description:  https://frenchfigfarm.com/fig-trees/violette-de-sollies

This is a purple fig that is widely grown in the Solliès region in the south of France.

The variety is recognized with an AOP (appellation d'origine protégée) or a "protected designation of origin" under the name "Figue de Solliès". Products labeled "Figues de Solliès" must come from the Solliès region of France much like "Champagne" and "Bordeaux" wine must come from the Champagne or the Bordeaux regions.

Our Violette de Solliès fig trees grow rapidly for us in our 20 gallon nursery containers. The leaves can be as big as dinner plates. 

These figs are large, flat, long stemmed, firm, sweet and juicy. We can taste a lot of berry and cherry flavors. They are purple on the outside and pink to red on the inside. Mari and I really like these. We start getting ripe figs in mid-September and they will continue until the end of the season. This is an excellent fig Mari and I look forward to every year. Produces one crop of large figs.

Other names : Bourjassotte noire, Barnissote noire, Parisienne

Origin: Baud
