Figs were picked late Aug. (not fully ripped). A good cultivator that need a longer season, IMO.

Navid,
What is the source of your Black Italian?

JD, it came from PFTP.

Navid,
It looks like it could be a really nice fig. It is not listed on their website. Did you purchase it during one of your visits?

JD,

This is a very good tasting fig. And yes, I bought it last year when I visited them. Two weeks ago I was speaking to Jason (the owner) and he mentioned that they still have some for sale. Their on-line inventory gets posted by one of the young guys who works there (forgot his name), he is usually behind in updating the site.
Just call them and ask Hannah (who takes the orders) about the availability of this variety. If they did not have it, don't worry I can send you few cuttings from my plant.


Navid.

Good info. Thanks Navid.

Navid -- do you think it is similar to what Durio nursery describe ? They call it Italian Blk.
