I have some cuttings I clipped today from a local unknown. Rosemary’s New York Ave Purple located in Lyndhurst NJ.
Rosemary tells me her Dad planted it “about” 50 years ago. They just sold the house, moving to Arizona on the 1^st. She tells me the new owners are cutting the tree down.
When I visited last August the tree was covered with birds so I didn’t get any really ripe figs but the ones I had were pretty good. Right now I’m doing 3 requests you pay postage, USA/Paypal only.

If I don’t reply to your message you didn’t make it.

That's one big tree that goes wasted,I guess the new owners don't like figs

    Is this something Rosemary's dad brought over? If, so, from where?

Wait, this isn't Rosemary's baby, is it?

Anyone know a priest who specializes in fig exorcism?

Look at that big, brownish fig in the lower left!  Love the way the skin cracks.

Looks like a Mt. Etna type fig.  People used to call these figs Italian Everbearing back in the day.  Now they go by many different names.  Hardy Chicago is a strain.  They are all over the NJ, NYC, LI area.  The most common fig brought over from Sicily by all the immigrants.  It is a very nice fig.  It is cold hardy.  But in a hot, long season climate it really performs.

(e.g., HC and Sal(EL) )
I second that...
There seems to be quite a few of them growing around here in the NE.

Thanks for the info on this unknown fig. This is what I was hoping for. This type should do well here in hot dry South West TX. Put my cutting down and are doing great 4/20/2013
Looking to eat some good figs form this tree someday. SOON COME as they say.

I'm from Indonesia. If I can go home next year, I really hope I can visit some of our fellow Indonesian member. Interesting looking figs. I wonder if Indonesian tropical climate plays role to the coloration of the fruits.

(Sob)  Congratulations, Dennis!

You have one left?
