Trying to get a positive ID on a fig I recieved last year as a cutting labeled Violette Dauphine. Leaves don't match the variety from the pictures I've been able to find, so I'm not sure it is true(we know that the leaf patterns can be a bit of a dead end anyway). It has grown vigorously with shiny leaves which are mostly three lobed and quite a few asymmetrical mitten shaped ones that are pretty distictive. This year it set a good handful of breba that are finished ripening as well a nice quantity of maincrop that are at the stagnant stage. I will post maincrop if and when they come in. Breba was good...Mildly flavored, one I picked at an advanced stage of ripeness was very sweet, the one pictured is perhaps more photogenic but a bit bit less wow than that one. Thanks for looking and hope someone can confirm the identity.

Leaves are a bit distantive My cuttings didn't make it so I will be watching for more replays also.

Do you have any photos of the other leaf shapes on the tree?  
With that leaf it doesn't look like Dauphine UCD nor Grantham's Royal.

Maincrop is dropping, maybe it needs the wasp.

Hi,
IMO, this is not Violette dauphine for Violette dauphine is a dark round fig.
The leaves are leathery and mat dark green. The trunk and stems are thicker than normal.
VD seems to be early to flush out and the brebas of mine got frost burn this year.
I have now the maincrop in the waiting stage ... and I'm waiting for them ...
I have been growing the tree for two full seasons. Not a lot of experience with it ...
VD doesn't need the wasp.

If anyone in wasp country wants to trial it, I have a very nice airlayer set that should be ready for a new home within the month....

AL is spoken for.
