There are two main fig varieties found in Mississippi: Celeste and Southern Brown Turkey. If you have a tree in your yard, there’s a good chance you have one of these two.

These characteristics can help you tell the difference!

Celeste Figs
Most common variety found in Mississippi.

Small, pear-shaped

Light brown to violet-bronze in color with pink pulp.

Sweet to taste.

Plant is vigorous, large, and productive, and is the most cold-hardy variety.

Southern Brown Turkey Figs
Medium-sized with light brown skin.

Has a mild, sweet flavor.

Ripens over a 60-day period.

Plant is vigorous, large, and productive.

How do you know when figs are ready to pick? It’s important to watch for the skin to fully color and for the fruit to soften. You want to be sure that it doesn’t get mushy, though! If you notice the fruit necks wilting and hanging down, that means the figs are ready to be picked!
