Fig 'Yellow Long Neck' (Ficus carica)
Jumbo Golden Figs with a Light, Honey-Sweet Flavor
The Yellow Long Neck Fig (Ficus carica 'Yellow Long Neck') is a unique and highly sought-after fig variety known for its giant, elongated golden fruit with incredibly sweet, smooth, and mild flavor. The skin ripens to a rich yellow hue, and the light amber flesh is honeyed, juicy, and practically melts in your mouth—ideal for eating fresh or drying for later use.
This variety is known for producing very large fruit, some of the biggest among common figs, and it's self-fertile, productive, and fast-growing. It thrives in full sun, prefers well-drained soil, and performs beautifully in containers or in-ground. It's a great choice for warm, dry climates but also adaptable with care in subtropical regions.
Whether you're a fig collector or just looking to grow your own mild, honey-sweet figs, Yellow Long Neck is a rewarding and attractive addition to any edible landscape or patio orchard.
