Variety Background: The Longue D'Aout fig is a great producer with large-sized stretched figs.  It is a unique fig that doesn't really fit into a fig category.  It's been described to be similar to Cucumber, Melanzana and Merdoscola varieties.  It has a cotton candy and berry flavor.  It's fruits ripen to greenish-yellow on the outside and light red on the inside.  Reportedly it was planted at Versailles, France in the 1700's.  This fig does not require pollination. 

Photos: The fig fruit photo shows what the fig looks like from the parent tree.  The tree photo in the pot shows the actual tree you will receive.  The tree is shipped as a bare root tree only, without soil and pot.  

Planting History:  The tree was stored in a garage in a dormant state during the 2023 to 2024 Winter season. The tree is budding and leafing out for the Spring season, so these leaves appear yellow.

Shipping: Fast shipping via USPS Priority Mail.  Sorry, shipping to lower 48 US states only. Check out my other listings.  Order multiple trees to save on shipping.

Return Policy:  If you are not satisfied with the condition of the cuttings or tree, please contact me immediately on FigBid and I will make it right. I only sell quality, healthy plants. My goal is for buyers to be completely satisfied with their purchase. I appreciate any feedback received on how the package was received and if there is anything I can do better.

Here is what you can expect:
-tree is a bare root tree that was root propagated in Summer 2023 so it may have a fairly large root below ground.
-tree will be shipped in a box as a bare root tree only, with no pot or soil, but roots will be pre-moistened and plastic-wrapped before shipping.
-when tree arrives please plant it immediately for best results.  Otherwise place roots in water for 1 hour every few days and keep them wrapped in a moist paper towel or newspaper until the tree can be planted.
-the tree is budding and leafing out for the Spring season, so these leaves appear yellow.  Before exposing to full sunlight, gently expose the tree to sunlight so they leaves don't get sunburned.
-some leaves may fall off during shipping.
-I assume that my trees have been exposed to FMV, please do not bid if this is a concern.
