Produces Dark, Jammy Figs with Rich Flavor and Compact Growth

The Violette de Bordeaux Fig Tree (Ficus carica 'Violette de Bordeaux') is a classic French heirloom variety cherished for its dark purple skin, deep red flesh, and complex, rich, almost berry-like flavor. These small to medium-sized figs are some of the best-tasting in the world, prized for their intense sweetness and concentrated flavor—perfect for fresh eating, drying, or making fig jam.

What makes this fig even more exceptional is its compact size and natural dwarf growth habit, which makes it ideal for container gardening, urban orchards, and small edible landscapes. It’s self-fertile, easy to grow, and performs beautifully in Zones 7–10, with reliable fruiting even in cooler climates.

The tree produces two crops per year in ideal conditions—a breba crop in early summer and a main crop in late summer to fall. With its manageable size, rich heritage, and gourmet fruit, Violette de Bordeaux is a must-have for fig lovers and food forest growers alike.
