Same person Mike. This winter I will wrap my RGNN trees and share photos of the breba with everyone when they ripen. 

Daniel, he us suppose t send me some cuttings which I will grow out and compare with the "plant" that he sent me two years ago. I dont
know why I am wasting my time with this.

Your tree has not bared fruit,  correct? It will be interesting to compare the fruit from your RGNN tree to mine. I have already done so with Art's
and its like comparing and apple to a banana. Nada

Lol wow WillsC , you really going to put that man on blast like that.  Rich who are you calling the Figgy Gestapo lol? mike didn't you see pictures of the fig I posted? Mine fruited this year main crop only. 

 

Please, please do not fuel this up, this forum was getting back on track so let's frown upon this. This is not good. Harvey, just sell as an unknown or share as an unknown, it is apparently a good fig, I'll buy one as an unknown. Please members do not allow this to keep going. This is a really good forum and let's keep it as a sharing and learning experience.

How about them figs......

Maybe there would be less naming issues/conflicts arising if there was F4F forum published "fig naming convention standard".

There is lots of information and direction in individual posts on this but I would like to see these ideas put together in a standard and published right up front in either in the forum basic Q&A or forum rules.  Volunteer anyone??

Thanks Harvey, Art, Leon, Daniel, Mike and others for tracking things down and sharing what you have. It is awesome to finally have a good description of what Genovese Nero is.

My RGNN (perfect name Daniel) should produce next year, it is being garaged so might even have brebas. Maybe we will be able to figure out what it really is. Now to find the real GN...

1st we need honest people, 2nd we need more photographed and detailed varieties in a public database like what jon is doing. Bravo Jon  

Something to help with the 2nd point is on the way. More details to come in early 2015 :)

Totally agree!  Jon's database is a great reference and I hope it continues to be updated and expanded.  I hope there is a good backup of it:)

I believe most people are honest so there is hope:)

I am thinking mostly of the many unknowns out there that at some point someone will name. 
We sure don't want these getting names of known accepted varieties and creating more issues.   Keep in mind all the existing known figs were named at some point and some seem to have been named pretty loosely.

The name standard I have seen on this forum seems very simple: 

<Unk. tag> <new fig name> <origin> - detailed description of fig with photos of leaves, fruit inside and out. 
For the origin I would like to see more than just someone's name. i.e. Where they got it and also where did the fig come from and any story around this.

The other issue is when and how does the unknown tag get dropped. 

Man, all I ever got from thread was that if it's a Thibodeaux, it apparently does well in the humid South as a substitute for Brunswick. 

Hey Leon, I am trying to see where my pics are one photobucket have 3000 unsorted pics so it's taking a while. To answer your question yes ripe fruits last year looked like yours and art's.

Isn't that why the "bountiful fig **** house" was created?

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh snap!!!!!

Exit stage left 

Boom

Looks like we need to throw a few flags for piling on, again.
