Anyone have a Lattarolla for sale?

I'd like to give the guy who was so generous to me a Lattarolla since I hear it's better than a Lattarula.  Anyone have one for sale?

I have a few small ones but shipping out to you on the west coast gets expensive.  Send me a pm.

Hi Bob,

I have both varieties but haven't tasted the Lattarolla yet. I received the cuttings from Ed (thank you) and now the trees are 2 years old and loaded with fruit that I am looking forward to tasting any day now. I will then be able to compare the two for myself.

Hi Vito:
Please post pics of your Latarolla and let us know how they taste!
Regards,
Leon

Vito, let us know!  Thanks, Ed!

Hi Leon hope all is well with you and family.
I will post pictures of Latarolla!

I know Barry had a figs off of his. Maybe he can post taste opinion.

Mine won't be producing until next year

I am not as well practiced as many here with tasting of figs as I have yet to taste all of those premium figs, but for what it's worth, I definitely prefer Latarolla to Latarulla. For me Latarolla is richer and with a more figgy taste. My tree was planted in ground last year so it is not very mature, but I am getting at least one and up to 4 figs per day. And since these are pretty big figs, you would probably have to pick 4 times as many VDBs to equal the fig volume of each Latarolla.

Barry,
The Latarolla is huge.  Are those main crop?  How much time does it need to get ripe?
