Description

Smith Fig (Ficus carica ‘Smith’) is a Louisiana-bred variety prized for its medium to large brownish-purple figs with rich, honey-like sweetness and juicy, tender flesh — often described as a blend of caramel, honey, and berry notes. One of the more productive and adaptable fig varieties for Florida’s climate, it thrives in containers and in the ground alike, making it a perfect addition to any backyard food garden or patio. These are well-grown 3-gallon specimens in excellent condition.
