Hello Everyone,

I'm very interested in Danny's Delight for it's known taste & hardiness, but I don't think there's a single main/breba picture of this one on the forum or in the variety list. (I'm referring to the dark version). Also any input on the variety will be helpful as well! I've heard nothing but good things, but more opinions can't hurt!

Thanks,
-Ross

Oh, Almost Eden sells this variety, so I did find this on their website:
 

Here's what I could find,

This is one I want too, as it was found in Michigan, so for sure I have to grow it. The other day I ordered one from Almost Eden. I should have ordered it from Greenfig.
Looking forward to trying this one for sure.

Who has this fig?  Sounds like it is super hardy!  

So Danny's Delight is completely out of stock now on Almost Eden's website, lmao!

Thanks Kerry! I have one DD inside my GH somewhere. I got mine from AE last year. I had 2....can't find the other one. I read in previous post from Jon, our admin, saying the green DD is the same as Desert King. DK growing in my climate is super hardy.

Kerry, I follow you on YouTube and watched you build your GH. How do you like it? Do you still have both the new GH and the Lean-To?

Is the Danny's Delight and Dan's Favorite the same fig?
They look the same and loosely have the same name.

I really liked it. It is not a pretty fig but doesn't split and tastes good.

This morning they had 6 in stock!

Dennis , must be a different Kerry on the You tube channel.
The last GH I built was back in 2007 or so. No cameras around.

Oh, ok. Thanks Kerry!

In response to Greenfig's question:

"Is the Danny's Delight and Dan's Favorite the same fig?
They look the same and loosely have the same name.

The answer to that question is ABSOLUTELY NO!  Dan's Favorite is from Dan Ackerman at Brinnon on Hood Canal in western Washington.  Danny's Delight (Delite) is from somewhere in the upper midwest and named after a different Danny.  To the best of my knowledge, these two varieties don't look even similar to each other.  See my website:  https://sites.google.com/site/kiwifruitsalad2
page F3.1 for a photo of Dan's Favorite Breba, and page F6.1 for a Breba on the tree.

Thanks, Bob!
I will keep the difference in mind!
