I want a JH Adriatic so bad. No luck so far but still hoping to find one over winter. Looks delicious, amazing, sweet, jammy, etc...

Looks good, Dave. This is one variety that I am looking forward to trying.

Hopefully my trees will be produce in their 2nd year.

Dave looks really good. One of my favorites. Too bad mine have been splitting lately.

Those look awesome. I'm looking forward to sampling some next season. My tree was too young to produce anything this year.

Still on my wish list

Many of my JH's split like my pal Rafaels has. I did eat some fairly open ones and they were still good.
I love this plant, and to the people looking, these are not hard to find at all

[Dave]

Next year I will have 2

You are a fortunate person. I bought three cuttings this year none rooted. I have killed them all.

[brettjm]

It was tough to root in my hands to, relative to most. I ended up going 2 for 2, but dang did they take their sweet time.

JH Adriatic is a beautiful fig, i cant wait to receive my cuttings and get that badboy rooted for next year! Amazing photos Dave

You are so right Dave about JH Adriatic , what a great fig.
If I could have only one green fig variety this would be it.
Unlike most other varieties I've tried this one is even very good when taken a bit early.
I wouldn't suggest doing that , since the full ripe flavor is so incredible, but it has stood out for me in being more forgiving when you jump the gun on harvesting.

I can't decide if I should get an actual JH Adriatic plant or cuttings. I want to try rooting cuttings, but I also want to taste this! A plant has better odds I'm thinking

[Coop]

If you can get a nice plant, at a nice price,it's always a good jump start. But if your rooting skills are good I've found this guy to be a good rooter

Thanks everyone here's some pictures of the tree with some more figs I am waiting to ripen

[eboone]

Nicely shaped and productive tree, Dave. Due to natural form or your pruning/shaping ability?

[Brian M Fig Phenom Find all posts View Profile Close Brian M]

Is that perlite on top of the soil?

[Dave]

Yup thats the perlite Pro-mix every time I water it rises to the top
