Black Madeira Fig Day

"Anthony!"  Not only is today Prince Spaghetti day but it is Black Madeira fig day.  It was a year ago to the day that I had my first Black Madeira fig and now on September 4th I get to enjoy the first BM of the season again.

It could just be random but both cuttings were started the same season but one was from UCD and the other from Encanto farms.  I don't know which is which though.  They are both the same size and in the same size pot with the same soil.

As long as the fruit is the same it would be nice to have one a little earlier then the other. Hopefully I will this variety soon, I've been trying to add it to my collection. Thanks for posting.

Man that was hard to watch....only because I can't taste it.

That's a beautiful site! Congratulations! Watching mine very closely for signs of ripening.

Lovely!!

Tom, very nice

Wow , that just looks amazing,

What a delicious looking fig!  I can't wait to have figs like that on my own trees.  =)  Thanks for sharing the pics, Tom

when you said you were licking your fingers i almost lick my phone lol.
I need to add this to my wish list. Can i buy or trade for some cuttings pls?

So before we can declare a national holiday everyone will have to at least have access to one right.
