Also known as Honey Fig or Dottato, the Kadota Fig is a self-pollinating variety prized for its honey flavor and juicy amber flesh. It produces medium-sized fruit with green to yellow skin that ripens late in the season.
Best suited for hot, dry regions in USDA zones 8–10, Kadota is not cold hardy but performs exceptionally well in arid conditions. Its sweet flavor and smooth texture make it perfect for fresh eating, drying, or preserves.
