Angelito

About

Angelito is a fig variety prized in collector circles for its exceptionally sweet, berry flavor. This would be the quintessential one to have for all berry flavors. You have this, you don’t need any other variety. Absolutely Top Tier variety.

The figs are small to medium, with thin greenish-yellow skin blushing amber at full ripeness and soft, pale amber flesh that practically melts to just… red. Its naturally restrained growth makes it one of the best choices for growing in small containers or on balconies.

Growing Notes

• Full sun minimum 10 hours for maximum flavor.
• Moderately cold-hardy; protect below −5 °C (23 °F) or bring containers indoors.

My Notes

Acquired as a rooted cutting. Grown in a 15 L terracotta pot on the windowsill. The compact size is genuinely impressive — it fruited in its first full season. Flavour is outstanding for such a small tree.
