Martinenca Rimada Fig Cutting

Type: Common Fig (Does Not Require Pollination)

About This Variety

Martinenca Rimada is an extremely rare striped fig originating from Mallorca, Spain. Considered one of the most beautiful figs in the world, this remarkable variety is highly sought after by collectors for both its appearance and exceptional fruit quality.

The fruit begins with green and yellow striping but continues to change color as it ripens, displaying shades that can range across much of the color spectrum before eventually darkening significantly at full maturity. This unique color-changing characteristic is the result of a rare natural mutation that makes Martinenca Rimada unlike nearly any other fig variety.

Beyond its stunning appearance, Martinenca Rimada produces fruit with outstanding flavor. The figs are exceptionally sweet with a rich, complex berry flavor and a dense, jam-like texture that has earned this variety a devoted following among fig enthusiasts.

Martinenca Rimada is a later-season fig that produces a single main crop. The tree is vigorous, productive, and rewards growers with beautiful fruit that is every bit as impressive to eat as it is to look at.

Because of its rarity, striking appearance, and exceptional flavor, Martinenca Rimada remains one of the most desirable striped fig varieties available today.

Recommended Growing Zones

USDA Zones 8-10

Don’t let the growing zones discourage you. Fig trees can be successfully grown in containers and many growers enjoy fresh figs well outside the recommended zones. Growing in a pot allows you to move the tree to a protected location during winter and control its size. With proper care and winter protection, many fig varieties can be grown and fruited outside their listed growing zones.

You Will Receive

• One unrooted fig cutting
• Approximately 6-8 inches long
• Minimum of 3 buds (nodes)
• Thickness will typically range from Sharpie-marker size or larger unless otherwise noted in the listing

Seasonal Appearance

During the winter months, cuttings will typically be fully dormant.

During the fall, cuttings may still be lignified (hardened woody growth) and may not yet be fully dormant. This is normal and does not affect their ability to root.

Wood color, thickness, bud spacing, and appearance will naturally vary from cutting to cutting. Certain varieties naturally produce thinner or thicker wood than others.

Rooting Instructions

Rooting instructions are included in the listing photos. Please review them before purchasing.

Propagation Disclaimer

Rooting success depends on many factors including temperature, humidity, rooting method, growing medium, sanitation, and grower experience.

While fig cuttings are generally considered easy to propagate, no rooting success can be guaranteed. Even experienced growers may experience occasional losses.

Most growers can expect a rooting success rate of approximately 60% to 80% under proper conditions. Individual results may vary.

Because rooting conditions are beyond our control after delivery, we cannot offer refunds, replacements, or credits for cuttings that fail to root.
