I just returned from Maui and was fortunate enough to collect cutting from this Maui fig tree growing on the island. It is surviving without any special care. Can anyone help in naming its variety?
The taste of the fig was delicious (very sweet) and there was a drop of honey at the end of it (open eye?) when I picked it from the tree.
I have no idea of what I have here (novice fig owner) but I will attempt to root the cuttings and will probably send a couple of cuttings to a more expert grower so that it is not lost if I fail in rooting.
Can anyone help in determining the variety of fig? Even if it is a common variety like Brown Turkey or a Celeste, its delicious taste will be make it my Maui Common Fig!
