    A really good dark fig that is similar to a Mt etna type, with some differences for me so far.  It seems to need to hang a bit longer for peak ripeness, and is a beautiful fig when well ripened.  It is a fig from the late Michael Grace’s collection, that I got from Dan…

    Great fig, with a bit of an dark olive exterior, red around the ostiole. Its deep red interior reminds me of some of the Col De Dame varieties. Excellent so far, but unfortunalely this one had no variagation on it when ripening.

    A great fig for growing in ground just about anywhere.  It is an early ripening variety that grows extremely fast for me.  The figs are great, dark berry flavor, and a circular shape.  Its only downside is that it can split when there is excessive rain/moisture.
