I want to know every part name of the fig flower/fruit from the opening Eye to the part that's attached to the branch that feeds it.
Is this what you are looking for?Sue
i thought there were only two parts. part that i eat, and the part that i spit out... :)
Pete, are you confusing figs with watermelon?
jon, the part i spit out per sue's pix is stem. with figs... i like eating the seeds. it would drive me crazy if i had to spit them out :)
Pete, LOLSue thank you so much, that's exactly what I needed.BTW, Pete, I needed the name of the part you usually spit out ;)
Hi Bullet08,You mean the stalk or ... Are you eating the leaves :) ?Sometimes the ostiole has a bad taste too, and I spit it out too .
On the same vein, anyone suggest a fig book? You guys throw out names of things I have no clue about, especially with caprifigs.
milehighgirl, there are few wonderful threads developed here last few weeks...you can read them, I'll post them for you, give me few min.
Milehighgirl, check your PM ;)
Okay, thank you.
The fig breeder I met with a couple of weeks ago said that the term "eye" is more appropriate for most discussion than "ostiole", saying that the ostiole extends through the fruit and includes the eye.
