This is one of the first fig plants that I purchased 2 years ago from a box store labeled Italian White. It has the healthiest foliage of all fig plants that I have in ground. No virus or rust which is rare in So. Florida. Also, no main crop although I am confident it will next year, just transplanted to ground 3 months ago. I posted this just for kicks because it was one of my first purchases and I am sure the label is in all probability is incorrect. What say ye?? Sorry no figs to help.

The leaves look like Brunswick, and because it is pretty common down south, it would be easy for a big box store to distribute.

I thought it was something different then what the label states "Italian White", I would be happy with a Stella. It is a little different, not much, than my Brunswick/Magnolia.
Thanks Gorgi and Bill
