The Ficus carica 'Violetta' or fig 'Violetta' is a cultivar known for its vigorous growth, spreading nature, and ability to reach heights of around 4 meters (13 feet). This variety typically manifests as a large shrub or a small tree. One of its distinctive features is its deeply lobed leaves. 'Violetta' is believed to possess better cold tolerance compared to several other fig cultivars. During late summer into autumn, this cultivar yields large, edible fruits that are sweet in taste. These figs have a dark, purplish-bronze skin and showcase pink to red flesh. They are appreciated for their flavor and often enjoyed fresh or used in various culinary applications. Another advantage of 'Violetta' is its capability to be grown in containers, allowing for fruit production at a relatively young age. This adaptability makes it a feasible choice for those who have limited garden space or prefer container gardening. Synonymously known as Ficus carica Bayernfeige Violetta, this cultivar retains its characteristics across different naming conventions and regions. When cultivating 'Violetta,' it's crucial to provide suitable growing conditions, including adequate sunlight, well-draining soil, and regular watering, to encourage healthy growth and fruitful harvests.
