check with Dennis "snaglpus" i believe he bought one from him sometime ago

Well my guess is that this photo is not of the actual tree for sale. She describes it as being dormant and getting ready to wake up!

They could of taken the photo before the tree went dormant I've done that before , the person is a member here and goes by the name " Olga " 

Makes sense, thanks Dave. The name does sound familiar.

Seller has a very large collection. Good people.

Tanks good to know " Good people "

Yeah, good people and great cook. Visited her last month and man, her roast chicken and sauce
was awesome. Best meal we had on our trip to central florida -- beats all the pork roast cook off
big names in the competition there. Good luck Olga.

Anyone knows how alligator meat taste ?

Like chicken!

Sometimes like chicken that was eating fish only tougher.  Just kidding.  I had gator in New Orleans and it reminds me of squid.  When it is well prepared it is awesome and badly prepared it is like rubber bands.  Good to know that the seller is another good one.  Sounds like a fun tree to have.

Hello!
When I first put Dall'Osso they was dormant, but in last 3 weeks they grow 2-3 inches, have small branches and leaves..
I try add info about plant already not a dormant, but for some reason was not be able..Sorry..
Paul.. next time I will cook for you pork roast:-) I think you will like it:-)
Olga.

Once there is a bid, EBay makes it very hard to add/change anything.

What a nice lady you are Olga.

Boy the food sound like it worth the trip.  You must be a very good cook and have great figs.

Olga. Can you tell us more about this tree. If it is the two colored one I really want it and I'm sure others would as well.

Like Jon said, a very knowledgeable member here and seller on ebay. A pleasure to do business with. You go Olga!!

Hi Olga,

Do you happen to have a photo of the fruit? It sounds interesting.

Thanks.

Hello!
Dall'Osso and cuttings what now on auction come from central part, so here a good chance for 2 color in double form..Normal fruit was completely black..I will put few cuttings from South too, but double form will be completely black on cuttings from South..
This year I hope to have double form on plants and from South and on central..I will post pictures here..

But I want to share something interesting what I find out just few days from now..
Harvey, please, don't tell anybody..
I want to ask everybody opinion on what variety this fig can be??
Thank you!

Hi, Vladis! 
thank you!
Yes, you must be saw this one on Paolo web..
I think many people here saw very similar if not identical picture on Ebay when people was selling plants or cuttings of Blk Madeira, Madeira Blk.. In reality this is Brogiotto Nero ..I was reading..In Italy people call Brogiotto Nero a king of figs, or best tasting fig ever..
And many people here speak very high about Blk Madeira..So, I guess many people agree this one great tasting fig..
One time I talk to Montserrat Pons and he show me one Russian guy collection..I translate him from Russian varieties, some was from Russia, some from US, and some from Italy.. Montserrat was saying many, many figs come from Italy and people was travel to other places and bring figs cuttings with them...And Italian figs now grow in many other countries too..
So, must be somebody bring Brogiotto Nero to Madeira, people grow this fig and because this is black fig, now we have Blk Madeira..
Olga.

So Brogiotto Nero is the same as Black Madeira?

I think so..
I show picture to Harvey..I ask him on your opinion what this fig look like.. And his respond was Blk Madeira..???
This is what was on my mind when I saw this picture on Paolo web..
What do you think?
Olga.
