Although they share a similar name, Mega Celeste is not to be confused with other fig varieties like Giant Celeste or LSU Tiger. In fact, most people believe that Mega Celeste is not a relative of the popular Celeste variety, and was a name given to an unknown fig with a similar appearance. Although Mega Celeste features the desirable teardrop shape that allows the shedding of water, this larger variety may not have the same splitting resistance as Celeste.
Mega Celeste will produce a breba crop and a main crop that ripens mid season. Growers like that Mega Celeste is fast growing, productive, and does not require wasp pollination. The trees grow 3- and 5-lobed leaves.

When do we ship cuttings?
Non-Rooted Cuttings(November/December):
We begin to ship cuttings once the trees are dormant and in a shippable state. Exact timing is weather dependent, but we usually start in November. Shipping continues throughout the winter and early spring. We stop shipping when the trees begin to break dormancy, normally around mid-March.
**All non-rooted cuttings ship between November and March regardless of the date selected during checkout. Orders placed during our pre-sale period(October/November) will ship out first in November/December. If you are rooting your cuttings in the spring, our cuttings can be kept in the refridgerator until you are ready to root them. They will be perfectly fine. That is what we do and they've turned into our most impressive trees.
Rooted Cuttings(Spring):
We begin shipping rooted cuttings once they are mature enough to ship. The shipping period typically begins late April and continues into June. Regardless of the date you select during checkout, we will ship when ready during that span. Please do not ask for ETA's or specific arrival dates. You will receive an email when your order ships with UPS Ground tracking details.
