What’s Ripening: Celeste figs, in Portsmouth, Virginia. This tree was propagated from my grandfather’s plant, which I suspect was a scion of the figs his father grew in Pleasant Grove, Alabama.
Celeste figs are soft-skinned and exceptionally sweet. Thing 2 uses them to make her signature fig and burnt butter tart, but only if we can keep the birds from plundering the crop. The mockingbirds have already gotten the fruits that were nearest to ripening. Netting goes up tomorrow.
