Marius,
I promise i wont say i told you so but.........  ; )
and
Jon thinks he has paradise all to himself . Ha Ha

Paradise in OHIO hopefully my BM ripens here in Michigan for me.

Can you recall how much time it took to get to the one with color from the size of the neighboring green ones?  The green ones are about the size of the ones on my tree now.

Hopefully he will chime in but mine came on June 15th in dated pictures and first ripe one today with others at any day now coming in.

Martin...you were right...no more comment...      Tmc2009,about 2 weeks between stage 1 and stage 2.

Great looking figs.  Any picture of the whole tree? 

Scott,i'll get back home on thursday,and i'll post pictures with the whole tree.Remind me in fall for cuttings of Florea,Marseille vs blk andTacoma Violet.    Marius
