Hello all,
It's surprising how some varieties that deserve more value than some of the crazy priced varieties on eBay.
We're all guilty of looking for the best or the best figs, and we seek the unusual and high priced figs, but there are some really great tasting ones out there that deserves to be on the list of the top tasting figs. To me I really enjoy Celeste. It's always wows my visitors when eating a fresh celeste, it's nice and early, but I really wish it would have been larger.
One variety that I look forward to eating is Verte. I just love the green skin with that deep color pulp, the flavor is amazing. It did very well in the Caribbean, and we planted about 200 trees there. Up here in Pa, it is a vigorous tree, somewhat cold hardy, but matures late in season. For some reason, it haven't been popular on eBay or in my store. It's not rare, but still one of my favorite.
