Description
Martinenca Rimada is a rare and highly prized striped fig from Mallorca, Spain, celebrated for both its dramatic appearance and outstanding flavor. As the fruit ripens, it undergoes a remarkable color transformation, beginning with yellow and green stripes before developing red, purple, and eventually near-black coloration. Beneath the striking skin lies a beautiful light red to deep raspberry-red interior with a dense, juicy texture. The flavor is intensely sweet and complex, blending rich berry notes of strawberry and raspberry preserves with honey-like sweetness and subtle floral undertones. Some growers also report hints of spice that add further depth to the eating experience. The fruit is known for its high sugar content, reaching around 28 Brix in ideal conditions, while its relatively closed eye provides excellent resistance to rain, splitting, and spoilage. Combining exceptional flavor, beautiful variegation, and dependable productivity, Martinenca Rimada is widely regarded as one of the finest striped ("rimada") figs available to collectors and enthusiasts.

Checked against the National Plant Board state summaries (opens in a new tab), last reviewed August 27, 2026. This is a platform default, not legal advice, and the Plant Board says its own summaries are not legally binding. Your state is checked again against the real delivery address after payment, and an order that can't legally travel is refunded rather than shipped. How buying works.
If something goes wrong
Plants die in transit, parcels go missing, and occasionally someone sends the wrong thing. In order, this is what you do.
- Message the seller. Use the button on this listing, so the conversation stays attached to the order. Most problems are a misunderstanding, and most sellers would rather replace a plant, or refund you, than carry a complaint.
- Failing that, your card issuer. Every payment here runs on a card through Stripe, so you keep the chargeback rights that come with it. You raise them with the bank that issued the card, which is the party actually holding the money. This is the reason to pay through checkout rather than by any transfer a seller suggests instead. Your order page walks you through it and names the card you used.
- Report it to us. Report a problem on the order. It is not a refund request and it does not open a claim. It is how we find out, and it is the only way we can act.
- What we do about it. A seller who repeatedly ships dead material, ships the wrong variety, or does not ship at all loses the ability to sell here. On a small marketplace that is the only real currency there is, and it is why reporting matters even when your own order gets sorted out.
Being straight about the limit: FigStead is the venue, not the seller. We never hold your money, never see the plant, and cannot reverse a payment or decide who is right about what was in the box, which is exactly why steps 1 and 2 are where they are. The formal version is in the Terms, and Staying safe has the longer walkthrough.
