Sultane is a productive variety that produces both a breba and a main crop. With a short hang-time on the tree and good resistance to splitting, Sultane is considered an upgraded Black Mission type. Sultane trees grow 7-lobed leaves with gentle, wavy margins. Sultane is a variety that is said to be grown widely in the Provence region of France. It is well-known as a part of Pierre Baud's collection of fig specimens. There is typically lots of crackling on the skin of Sultane figs. Sultane figs are filled with bright red pulp. The taste is berry, figgy, and fruity. Sultane figs have a firm texture, and have good resistance to splitting in rains and humidity. The small, dark figs usually ripen mid-season. 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. 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. For all questions, please refer to our Fig FAQ page here.
