A second year tree placed in ground in May 2015. It has produced lots of new
growth with a minimal amount of FMV. It has numerous figs that should
ripen over the next few weeks. Their appears to be a huge difference between
this variety and my Black Ischia from UCD. My third year Black Ischia from UCD
is very stunted and has no figs.
This fig was not overly sweet and had the flavor of a Merlot Wine. The texture
was very firm and had some seed crunch. We decided upon at 6.5 for this
first fig.
