Thank you for the pics Marius,
They look so delicious!

My little Florea from a forum member, while having a decent amount of FMV is going to produce figs this year.

Which go to show that even the toughest ,cultivars can get Fig Mosaic virus,if close to diseased trees and if there is a spreading agent near:Ex:Grafting on infected trees,or acaria fici present.
The mother tree positively is totally healthy.
Now with this virus on,the plant is nowhere near as frost resistant compared to a healthy plant.
Also,a healthy Florea is now totally different,to an infected Florea ,they are not the same tree anymore and the diseased one should never be propagated.
Here is ,Marius healthy, Florea young tree from cuttings from Original mother tree in Beverly NJ.

Herman,

If you can suggest a source(I dont use Ebay) for a disease free Florea I would be very interested in purchasing one. 

I'd be very interested myself.

Marius sells this one on Ebay,all you got to do ask him,he will be glad to sell you one.
