A couple varieties recieved as cuttings this year seem to be showing their leaf patterns and I hope folks who grow these can help me confirm them being true to type. Sorry, no fruit. And if not, make a guess!
The first photo with two leaves was recieved as Madeleine deus Saisons, the second photo with three leaves Violette Dauphine.
Thanks for looking.

The leaves on your Violette Dauphine do look like mine,very nice shapely leaves,I can't see in the pics up close as when I try to open them they end up stretched out but do the leaf stems have a pink tinge to them?,I see that'll the leaf stems from where the stem leaves the branch right up to the leaf.On Madeleine I'm afraid it's one I don't get have but I'm sure someone else will chime in

Hi,
IMO:
Md2s might be.
VD is not as it should be velvety...
But with just few leaves, who knows :) .

I appreciate your responses, and realize that IDing a fig plant by leaves is not a sure thing.

Hopefully some fruit will confirm things next year!
