[greenfig]

Yes, it is Common

I need that in my life!

[Halligan-]

Sexy as ever!

[2AngelsMushrooms]

It looks crazy good? How would you describe the flavor?

[greenfig]

Ripe strawberry flavor would be the closest I can think of

[2AngelsMushrooms]

Thank you for the reply.

[ZingsFigs]

Here I go again thinking of adding to my wish list. Will the madness ever stop. Great looking figs, I am really interested in flavor. Thank you for sharing

[greenfig]

It’s a strawberry flavor type fig. The more it hangs on a tree, the juicier it becomes. They ripen very fast, not like a Black Madeira

[acerpictum]

Forgot.. what weight? Figs are similar to Dalmatian (old synonyms are White Turkish, Fico Pionoto, Weisse Dama, Armud figs), but Dalmatian almost all figs with obvious asymmetry.

[greenfig]

They are in the range of 80-120 grams. Large and heavy

[Vladis]

In Russia this variety is called "Dalmatian"

[Achilles]

So you know anything about where it came from? Region in Greece ?

[greenfig]

If Jon joined this forum, I haven’t seen his posts, maybe he just reads it, I do not know. You can still access the figs4fun forum in a Google archive

[ginamcd]

His business' name is Encanto Farms Nursery and maybe you can make contact via his website, or look for a Facebook page.

[Achilles]

Thank you. I'll reach out through FB.

[JLB]

Looks good 👍 does anyone know how it does in a humid and wet climate?

[ginamcd]

I forget, are you in wasp territory? Are these caprified?

[greenfig]

Yes . I have all the bugs: fig wasp , BFF, SWD, you name it

[ginamcd]

While I envy you having the fig wasp, I'm sorry you have the other two as well...

[fisherman]

JLB A green fig from Greece that does reasonably well in hot, humid and rainy FL is Harry’s Crete. It is also a great tasting fig.

[Achilles]

I second this - HC is a great fig all around.
