Constans originally comes from the extensive fig collection of French grower, Figues du Monde. This is a great variety for growers with short seasons or less than perfect weather. Constans is early ripening, tasty, and productive. It has good resistance to splitting in humidity or heavy rains. The variety is hardy, and is able to be planted directly in the ground in some grow zones. Constans is a French variety that stands up to Celeste and other top figs. The skin may also have some crackling. Constans has a vibrant pulp with colors of red, orange, and peach. The appetizing pulp has a good seed crunch, and a sweet berry flavor. The trees produce a breba and a main crop and have mostly 5-lobed leaves with uniform margins. Growers have compared Constans to the popular fig variety-Celeste because of its leaves, taste, and void in the middle of the fig. If you are a fan of the Celeste fig, Constans is another variety to try. Terms and Conditions: ***Please be sure to read our Terms and Conditions before purchasing cuttings*** 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 refrigerator 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.
