Black Mission Fig Tree

Buy Black Mission Fig Trees for sale at Advanced Nursery Growers in DeFuniak Springs, Florida.

Enjoy rich, sweet figs with deep purple-black skin and reddish-pink flesh. Black Mission is a classic variety for fresh eating, preserves, baking, and drying. Its large, lobed leaves add tropical appeal to a sunny home orchard or patio garden.

Plant Details:

  • Plant Type: Deciduous fruit tree.

  • Botanical Name: Ficus carica ‘Mission’.

  • Mature Size: Approximately 15–30 feet tall with a broad, spreading canopy; pruning can maintain a smaller size.

  • Sun: Full sun for best fruit production.

  • USDA Zones: Best in mild-winter climates; winter protection is important in colder locations, including North Florida Zone 8b.

  • Chill Hours: Low chilling requirement.

  • Bloom/Harvest: Flowers develop inside the figs. Main harvest occurs in summer into fall; an earlier crop may develop on overwintered wood when conditions allow.

  • Fruit: Purple-black skin, reddish-pink flesh, and a rich, sweet flavor.

  • Pollination: Self-fruitful. One tree can produce fruit; no second variety or fig wasp is required.

  • Soil/Water: Plant in well-drained soil. Water regularly during establishment and dry periods; avoid standing water.

  • Landscape Uses: Home orchards, edible landscapes, and large containers with regular pruning.

North Florida Growing Note:

Black Mission is less cold hardy than commonly grown Southern figs such as Celeste and Brown Turkey. In the Florida Panhandle, plant in a warm, sheltered location and protect young trees during freezes. Cold damage can reduce the following season’s harvest. Container growing allows the plant to be moved to shelter during severe cold.

Local Pickup & Limited Shipping:

Local pickup is available at our nursery. Limited shipping may be available for select small plants in containers of 3 gallons or less with prior approval. Contact us before ordering for shipping.
