Pel de Bou Fig
Pel de Bou comes from the island of Mallorca, where it was part of Montserrat Pons' collection. This is one of the few early ripening varieties from Pons, so it's great for northern growers with shorter seasons.

Details
Pel de Bou is an attractive fig with light yellow and brown skin. The thick skin may have some crackling, and it gives the fig good resistance to splitting. Some have described the skin as having a light fuzz, like a peach. When translated from Catalan, its name contains the words for hair and skin. Pel de Bou figs grow to medium size and have a drop shape. Inside, the figs are sweet and juicy with a light berry flavor. The pulp has a bright red color. In addition to the tasty figs, Pel de Bou trees grow 5-lobed leaves with long fingers. Pel de Bou is a moderately vigorous grower.

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.
