Oh man been waiting for 3 years now common baby ripen

Ohh no, not the yellow leaves of fall!  Good luck, I hope they ripen for you.

Looks familiar just like my Violet Sollies and come to find name is possible Syn of Sollies .

Martin this one came from France and I also had a violette de sollies from France the only difference I found while growing both was violette de sollies had mostly 5 lobed leaves and my bourjassote noire has mostly 3 lobed and serrated leaves.

This is the violette de sollies leaf I had I died over winter good thing I had given my dad a little plant last year.

lol Nelson i was going to ask you how many lobes your BN has as i only saw 3 in picture.

Martin I'm stuck indoors babysitting right now but I'll take a better picture of the canopy of BN.

You dont have to Nelson no big a deal. ; )

Truly a beautiful fig, fantastic color, hope it ripens soon for you 

Beautiful colour so far, hope you get some tasty figs from it.

Very beautiful figs, thanks for sharing.

Best,
Tam

Looks great Nelson! I have a small plant in the greenhouse from a cutting I rooted last fall that has 2 green figs but not sure I will have time to see them ripen like yours. I'm definitely looking forward to this one though.

Wonderful pictures, Nelson. It finally turned to my favourite colour though I like them in all colours if they just get ripe here and I get it before raccoons.

So Nelson , does it taste as good as it looks ?

John

How was the taste?  Looks gorgeous. 

Nelson, Nice pictures and a very good fig !
Tell me, these past two weeks before you pick that VS, were the figs in or out of shelter ?
I am surprised how you manage to get such nice figs on your latitude.

Francisco

Akram hope you get to taste it.

John , yes tastes as good as it looks the flavor is outstanding.

James hard to explain the flavor one of the better figs I have sampled thus far.

Francisco all my plants are out in the open no real shelter from the cold or winds or rain but I did manage to ripen a few late cultivars and tasted extremely good.

I wish I had a greenhouse to get them to start earlier.

No.  It's like the confusion with all the Bordeaux figs.  In this case, it's not similar figs with names confused for one another like VdB and Negronne, but different figs with different names accepted as being like another when they are not actually the same fig.  Barnisotte is not the same as Bourjasotte Noire is not the same as Violette Soleis.  Unlike the Col de Dame figs, the figs with names related to Bourjasotte are not all even in the same family of figs, let alone necessarily identical enough to one another.

Martin here's the 5 lobed leaf

Thanks Nelson for picture.
My Violet Sollies is slowly loseing the 3 lobe leaf shape on plant .

Here is 1 of the 3 lobe leaves i just took now, to dark but it has the leaves of your post#4 and leaf right above
this post as well.

Fruit looks the same.

Think our plants are first cousins .  ; )
