I have had a Celeste fig tree for 5 years and is a great tree. I also have a Kadota fig tree, which the fruit is yellow, open bottom and honey like. Mild taste, i love figs, i have them on pots, i have a very small yard and they do great!
I ordered trees so who knows if they`re really Brown Turkey & Celeste. I rooted a cutting from the turkey and put it in the ground in March and I have another in a pot to plant next March. So I have 7 so far & 4 Dwarf Everbearing Mulberry in Louisiana. They`re growing HUGE already. I got one ripe fig so far from the turkey and it was the sweetest fig I`ve ever tasted. Baby birds pecked off a lot of tiny green figs so I had to put mosquito nets over the two making fruits this year.
I have one small fig tree that I've had for about 7 years. I get figs every year but I have no idea what variety it is. I guess I need to do some research. Lol. Your fig trees all look really good!
My Brown Turkey tree has Celeste leaves like yours and others I`ve seen and my Celeste have a mix of triangular "shield" or "heart" shaped leaves and long, narrow 5 fingered ones on the same plants. So who knows what I have. My turkey trees are making much larger figs than any Celeste I`ve ever seen and they`re slightly purple when ripe. No fruits on my others yet but they came from tissue culture supposedly. All came from plant nurseries in Florida & California. But hey, as long as they make figs and can survive the freezes I`m good.
Glad to hear about your fig situation! 2 kinds of fig trees, fruiting and not, heh. BTW, love the channel pic, made me chuckle.

Very interesting to know that you can take small cuttings from bottom of large figs and replant to give to neighbors..kind man😃👍Could you do a step by step video on how you propagate the little cuttings after you cut it away from mother tree🌳? Thank you. 🤗Greedings new subscriber from Phx.Az🌵🌞
So nice of you, thanks! I will certainly make that video, will give you a shout out in it. I appreciate the sub, hope you can make a weekend morning Live Stream!
Neam oil is a nice natural treatment for rust. Also since rust is a fungus, touching the rust blighted leaves, and then touching other non-infected leaves, spreads the leaves. Don't just drop leaves you remove from the tree. Remove them from the area.
They grow much better with 6 to 12 inches of mulch several feet out around the tree...layers of grass clippings, leaves, cardboard, rotting branches, pine straw etc.
Most figs produce fruit twice a year, an early crop that's called a breba crop, and a main crop. Warmer regions can produce figs nearly year round by growing different varieties. Varieties can be early, mid, or late production types.
It is actually starting to jump up, thanks for asking, I will make an update video. Will likely live stream tomorrow morning and take a look at it.
