Ray, the look very good.

Thank you.

Mine are nice strong growers as well

Mine look similar, very strong growers!  I grafted 3 cuttings too and they all took. Check those posts:

Actually, the grafted cuttings grow better than their rooted sisters because of the very nice root system of Adriatic.

Looking good Ray...nice work, and good luck.

I don't think mine are that nice but all of them have rooted and are coming along.

goss

That fig does not look like UCD Adriatic,nor look like JH Adriatic.
Till it is Id ,it should be called Unknown White,no pun intended.

All the leaves are juvenile so it's too early to tell.  Adriatic is not a fig that is likely to produce well in Seattle so the identity was always suspect.  There's nothing wrong with calling it Adriatic Grasa until we're sure one way or the other.  The other option should be to call it Grasa's White  or Grasa's White Unknown.  There are too many unknowns to call each of them unknown (color).  The "Unknown" should be at the end so the name alphabetizes correctly.

Bob I agree,especially the last name:Grasa"s White Unknown,will be very easy to  keep track of it.
I also have a white unknown ,and I have no record where i got it from.
My plant is in trial so if it is exceptionally good to compete against JH Adriatic,then I will try to bring it on the forum and someone might recognize,what it really is.

the cuttings came from my boss. his tree must be 40 years or so... he said it is Adriatic. To me, that is what it is.

Boom!

I like to listen to my boss too. :)
this is an adriatic from a local orchard. shows same non lobed leafs as your...
