Fig Candy is a prolific producer of green-yellow fruit with deep red, rich, and sugary flesh. Sporting medium-sized bell-shaped fruit, Candy is ready for harvesting when the ripest fruits begin to fall, typically in April.

Although commonly perceived as fruit, figs actually comprise a cluster of tiny flowers nestled inside an edible shell. All fig varieties exhibit frost tolerance and can undergo significant pruning to maintain the desired shape and size or left to flourish for children to climb. Early fruit formation occurs on last season's wood, while autumn fruit develops on the new season's growth.
