Violette de Bordeaux is a compact fig variety valued for its medium-sized fruit with red flesh and suitability for container growing. The plant is self-pollinating and prefers full sun with well-drained soil.

This listing includes 1 brand-new live fig plant, 3–8 inches tall, shipped in a 3-inch-deep pot. The plants are propagated by tissue culture rather than seed. Figs may arrive with few or no leaves, particularly during dormancy or shipping, and can resume new growth as conditions become favorable.

Plant Condition Disclosure:
Live plants may be shipped dormant, leafless, recently pruned, bare root, or partially defoliated depending on season, weather, and shipping requirements.

Natural variation in size, branching, foliage density, color, root structure, and overall appearance should be expected.

Shipping Size:
Approx. 3–8 inches tall at time of shipping.

Important Note:

You will receive a live starter plant (seedling/young plant). Listing photos show the plant at a mature stage for reference only. The actual plant size, shape, and appearance may vary and will be significantly smaller than the images shown.
