These are different.
Dalmatie is green fig.
Brunswick is more brownish and can be spoilled by rains which Dalmatie will not notice.
Both are not very early in my climate and late enough for most of main crop. And I plan to exchange these for earliest or breba varieties.
I do not have Magnolia which is said to be simmilar to Brunswick.

I'm listing U. Dalmatia (Smith?) cuttings now. It would be great if someone could grow them and confirm the name for me.

We take chances by doing anything, even when we are birth :)
You will be glad with you Magnolia or get rid of it...
As for me it is better to exchange or to purchase from reliable person.
If nursery is big it means more people and more chances to get something wrong.

I read online that magnolia is a Texas fig that was bred for canning in the factories; pretty sure in the 20's.

The better you protect it in winter the more figs you get!

My 3 in ground Dalmatie trees are loaded again this year as they are every year.

i'm confused is dalmatie and dalmatia the same fig ??

He has Dalmatie! I'm pretty sure Dalmatie is the real name and Dalmatia is a typo or a name for Croatian figs.
