| Botanical Name | Ficus carica 'Black Mission' |
| Description | 'Black Mission' is one of the most popular figs in the world for a reason. It produces a heavy crop of medium to large, pear-shaped fruit with a dark purple, almost black skin. The strawberry-colored flesh is rich and honey-sweet, making it perfect for fresh eating, drying, or preserves. It thrives in the Houston metro area and often produces two harvests a year. |
| Exposure | Full Sun |
| Height x Width | 10-15 feet tall x 10-15 feet wide |
| Water | Requires regular, deep watering until established. Once mature, it is quite drought-tolerant, though consistent water during fruit set ensures the juiciest crop in Willis. |
| Zones | 7 - 10 |
| Chill Hours | 100 - 200 hours |
| Harvest Time | Summer and Fall |
| Deer Resistance | Moderate |
