Yellow Longneck Fig Tree – Jumbo Golden Figs with Honey-Sweet Flavor

Yellow Longneck Fig Tree

Discover one of the most visually striking and productive fig varieties with the Yellow Longneck — prized for its massive, elongated golden fruits and exceptional sweetness. Grown from cuttings at Red Rock Orchard in the high desert of southern Utah, this variety thrives in challenging conditions similar to your own backyard or orchard.

Fruit Characteristics

• Skin: Bright golden-yellow to yellow-green with a distinctive long neck and smooth, thin, tender texture.
• Flesh: Pale amber to light pinkish-amber, juicy and syrupy with a soft, melt-in-your-mouth consistency.
• Flavor: Delightfully sweet with rich honey notes, subtle citrus or agave undertones, and a pleasant light seed crunch. Excellent for fresh eating, drying, preserves, or desserts.
• Size: Jumbo — often among the largest figs, reaching 2–3+ inches long with a prominent neck.

Tree & Growth This self-fertile, common-type fig is vigorous and productive, often yielding both breba (early) and main crops. The tree is manageable, reaching 8–15 ft with pruning, making it ideal for in-ground planting or large containers. It shows strong adaptability to warmer, drier climates like the Southwest and performs well in alkaline soils.

At Red Rock Orchard, we propagate these from healthy, desert-tested stock to ensure strong root systems and resilience. Expect reliable fruiting in 1–2 years with proper care.

Care Highlights

• Full sun
• Well-drained soil; drought-tolerant once established
