Black Madeira Rooted Cutting - Gold-Standard Berry Variety

For sale is the exact Black Madeira fig plant pictured.  It is common, so it does not require pollination to make tasty fruit. This fig has long been established as a must-have for most collectors and gold-standard by which many newer fig discoveries are rated against for quality. Despite appearances, this plant is actually almost 1 year old, the lignified branch can attest to that.  It was a propagation that I initially thought had failed, and this little guy sprung to life suddenly and has been doing great, even over the mild winter season here in Texas. This plant is a trooper. All of our plants are raised outdoors where they can bask in the warm Texas sun, so I can assure you that this plant is tough and acclimated to outdoor conditions.  As with any plant, the general recommendation is to give it a little TLC on arrival, possibly keeping it out of direct sun for a few days, but it is already hardened to outdoor conditions and is doing great in the heat now.

Your plant will come as-is in the pot featured in the photo.  I have had mixed experiences receiving plants with loose or wrapped soil, so I believe it is worth the extra cost to me to ensure their roots remain undisturbed and they are ready for you to transplant after they arrive.  This plant should continue to do fine in its pot until you start seeing roots creep out of the bottom, but it will naturally grow faster if it can spread into a larger space.  As many others have noted, there is frequent exposure to FMV among the community, and, while I don't see any serious signs of issues with disease in my plants other than some leaf spots from the winter on older leaves, beware of the possibility of mild manifestations which resolve effortlessly.

Unfortunately I cannot ship to Alaska, Hawaii, or internationally.
