Pollination for figs

Question

I live in south Georgia. I was told that I needed to buy 2 fig trees in order for them to grow figs. I didn’t realize until I planted them that one is a Black Mission Fig and one is a Celeste Fig. Will these work together to give me figs?

Answer 1

The fig fruit is actually the flower of the tree with both the male and female parts. So no, you do not need two trees in order to get fruit.
