Two Conadrias survived my neglect (though not sure if I had a third that I gave away). The one on the far left wants to go bushy, so I made an air layer which is the one in the middle. All of those large, bright green leaves on top of the air layer just popped out within the last two weeks Funny how some of my figs are leafing out right now, while others are dropping leaves.
I thought the Condadrias would be one of my most aggressive growers. They went through a growth spurt for a while, but then some of my others caught up or passed. I'd say by the end of the year they had about average vigor, which is fine with me. I like the trees to get up to size quickly, but in the long run I don't want a lot of vigor since I plan to have lots of small trees.
I don't allow my first year trees to keep any figs, but the Conadrias desperately want to make figs. When I went out to take some photos this morning, I found that both of the two bigger Conadrias have put on another short round of figlets. Out of the dozen or so varieties that I started this year, the only one that has been putting on more figs than the Conadrias are the LSU Purple. I accidentally let two of my Conadria figs grow. One I tried to eat but it tasted slightly disgusting. It had rained a few days before I ate it, so either the rain spoiled it, or I just let it get too ripe. There is one more large fig on the tree that might get ripe. Can't wait until I can let the figs grow on this next year. It's going to be LOADED.
