I bought this Atreano from Richter's this spring and here is it's first main crop fig. The taste was almost nonexistant and watery. I hope it gets better with age.
Is it supposed to be that dark???
Needs more sun?
That's "Atreano".....?????????????????Frank
Here is the tree.
Leaves and fruit don't match. Possibly not Atreano.
nope desert king maybe
Sammy I also got one from richters this spring and found the same thing tasteless would of Been better of eating one of the leaves:)
Not impressive. Last chance next season.
Thanks for the comments. I'll keep it for a while to see if it gets better.
Hey Sammy or Nelson, do you have the link for Richters?
Here it is.http://www.richters.com/Web_store/web_store.cgi?show=list&prodclass=F006&cart_id=7349759.29285
The plant looks really small for all of that fruit. IMHO if you up-pot to a 10 or 20 gallon and keep it near a south facing brick wall you will get better tasting figs next year. Go heavy on the Miracle Grow mixed for potted plants next spring too.
None of mine look Anywhere near that dark
Nice store thanks for the link Sammy!
Mine was a dull pinkish color. I'm sure the pulp color is due to cold nights.
I purchased 2 HC, a Peters Honey and a Lattarula from Richters in the spring. They were sold out of Atreano. Perhaps I got lucky.
Looks like it needs fert and lime.
