Dead wasps in figs?! ⬇️ The figs are basically inside-out flowers! Because the fig flower is on the inside, they have a unique pollination system involving tiny wasps, known as fig wasps. The female wasp enters the little hole on the bottom of the fig, in the process tearing its wings and antennae off 😵‍💫 The female wasp then lays eggs and deposits pollen & then dies inside the fig. Male wasps hatch first & don’t have wings. They impregnate the female wasps before they hatch, then drill little

But which figs actually DO need pollination from wasps? There are actually four main types of cultivated figs: 1. Common Figs – like Brown Turkey, Celeste, Kadota, Black Mission. These do not need pollination. They can set fruit all on their own. 2. Smyrna Figs – these do need pollination from a fig wasp to ripen properly. The classic example is the Calimyrna you’ll often see dried in stores. 3. San Pedro Figs – these are interesting. Their first crop (called the breba crop) doesn’t need pollina

Without wasps, fig trees wouldn’t be able to produce fruit.🐝🌱Figs are pollinated by female wasps, and they’re not actually fruits but inverted flowers - so wasps crawl inside, lay eggs and fertilize the flowers with pollen from other figs.The wasp eggs hatch into larvae and they feed on the interior of the fig before pupating and exiting the fig as adult wasps.I had no hope for my fig seeds but that’s clearly not the truth bc i kept these seeds for two years. and last week i opened my fig seed

If you're a fig first-timer, we've got some pointers to help you grow. 🌱 All our figs are self-pollinating, so you only need one! 🌱 Plants typically fruit 2–3 years after planting. 🌱 Pick a variety recommended for one zone colder than your zone. 🌱 In winter, take potted plants indoors or to a protected location, or mulch heavily.

Explore the Earth 🌊 on Instagram: "Fig wasps — one of nature’s strangest and most important partnerships! 🌳 What Are Fig Wasps? Fig wasps are tiny insects (often smaller than a sesame seed) that have a special, exclusive relationship with fig trees. They are the only creatures that can pollinate most species of fig trees. In return, figs give them a safe place to reproduce. This relationship is so perfect that it’s called obligate mutualism — both sides need each other to survive. 🌀 Life Cycl
