Grow your own sweet, honey-flavored figs with this live Celeste Fig (Ficus carica) starter plant. Also known as the Honey or Sugar Fig, Celeste produces small, delicious fruits during the summer and is valued for its compact size, self-pollinating habit, and adaptability to warm climates. Your young plant will arrive approximately 3–8 inches tall in a 3-inch-deep pot. These figs are grown from tissue culture rather than seed, helping provide true-to-type plants with strong establishment potential. Plants may arrive without leaves, particularly during cooler months or dormancy, which is a normal part of the fig's growth cycle.

💡 Care Tip: Give your Celeste Fig plenty of full sun and well-draining soil. Keep the plant adequately moist during active growth and fruiting, but avoid soggy roots. If your fig arrives without leaves, don't be alarmed—figs naturally enter dormancy and may also lose foliage during shipping. A firm stem and green buds are good signs that the plant is alive and ready to resume growth when conditions improve. In humid climates, avoid wetting the foliage unnecessarily and keep fallen leaves cleared away to help reduce fig rust concerns.
