I do love the fig plants with the long finger shaped leaves.  Thought it might be fun for people to show some of their plants with the longest finger leaves.  I will start it off......plant is only a couple months old. 

This one is a youngin' too.

 

Sorry...should have mentioned what it is:)  It is a ?  I don't like unknowns but it was sent so planted it.  Glad I did as I love the leaves, hope the fruit is good.

~what type is it do you know the name~

Here's a beautiful unk, one of my prettiest and most vigorous plants. Might be a mission based on photos I've seen of similar leaf pattern. This is new growth after dying back to the ground. Maybe next year I will see a more mature leaf.

Edit-after looking at the open attachment, the picture is compressed looking and not nearly a long as the leaf really is. The unopened attachment pic is more the natural scale. I'm still learning how to add pictures, maybe I will always have problems using an iPhone...

First one on left is Jin Ao Fen, second is Unknown Brooklyn Hand Grenade, Third is VdB.  Enjoy!

   

Here is my Unk. Dalmatie.  Leaves from 3 different plants.   Shape seems to change depending on where it is planted in ground and containers different still.

5 yr old planted in ground for summers only stored in barn for winter
  

Planted in ground this year
 

8 yr old in ground permanently

 

Here's a BIG one for you Willis.
You deserve it!  :)

It's the from John's Market Capri.

Aaron,

That is just a big leaf, not long fingers.  


Andreas,

That one of yours is very nice:)  Do you know the variety?

the middle one is 10 inches long, not enough for you?

this fig is the dark love of my life lol!!!

Это зачётный лист? 37 см.  

Colasanti #3 & colasanti #4

Beautiful leaves on #4, Nelson.

Nelson,

They both are very nice but agree with Frank that #4 is spectacular. 

Thanks Guys, I too like this particular tree. It has some figs but don't think they will ripen in time.

Found another 2 photos of this fig, was labeled Italian fig "Brown Honey" sold by colasanti farms last year was the first time I seen this fig for sale.

Wills,

I am shipping this one to you. If you are successful rooting let me know. I should have waited until dormant, but if this one doesn't take for you I have about 7 more, but it is getting tough typing;(  

Use my famous rooting system with 100%, LOL

Strudeldog,
  It's good that you sent him one that already had nice calluses formed ;-)
Jim

Could have made it a hot girls finger instead since I am going to grow the clone......bear in mind I prefer brunettes.

LOL, Ole Dr. Bigfingers!

Here is a Tissue Culture VdB that I purchased from Wellspring Nursery last fall. It was the size of 2 skinny tiny pencils. It went dormant in the winter and it was in my garage until the spring. I then put it into my home made SIP. It was a slow start and then took off like crazy and grew about 4 feet this summer and looks very healthy. There are 2 figs on it that I let be and they don't look like they will ripen this year.
Either way its been a great start, and nice fingers
