Help Confirm Fig Type

Unfortunately I bought and planted stuff before educating myself enough about fig plant sources. I bought 2 fig plants from willis orchard couple of months back instead of people over in this forum and gardenweb. Can somebody here please help identifying if these plants are what willis orchards tagged them as?. The leaves seem little different but I wasn't sure.


P.S Also got couple 2' fig plants from lowe's (1 brown turkey - dead and 1 Kadota). navid helped me in the other forum in taking care of kadota.


I did post them and they disappeared in last 15 mins. reposted, hopefull they won't disappear again.

taken couple of hours back. 07/15/2011.

I got them exactly two months back, guess I was late in ordering them. They didn't have any leaves when I planted them, hopefully they will survive and grow next year.


I put some Osmocote few days back and wanted to put miracle grow all purpose today but the guy at HD said I shouldn't be putting it now as it's already too hot and I might kill it because of some nitrogen thing.

It's almost 100C daytime and 80C night time.

To identify the variety of your trees you need to take a picture or two from the following steps,

1) Fruit (Uncut) placed beside a quarter, for size comparison.

2) Then cut it evenly in half.

3) Pics of the mature leaves.

Then you can post them here and other experts can identify them.


Good luck

guess I will know next year what they really are. thanks for your feedback.
