There has been much written and debated about Nordland and Longe D'Aout
being the same fig. After growing both varieties out and tasting both, I
still have not come to a definitive decision. I have posted all the information
about the two figs that I have, I will let you try and make a decision.
The Nordland is a four year old tree that has been in ground since April 2015 and the
Lounge D'Aout is a second year tree that has been in ground since May 2015. As you
can see the leaves are very, very similar and the shape of the fruit is similar. The
colors are just alike, The taste, AH the taste. Well, my wife and I say they are really
close but their is a subtle difference. The Lounge D'Aout had just slightly more of
a berry flavor. The Nordland was more creamy. Neither had a seed crunch.
Having said all of that, I still don't know for sure. They are both very good.
