Jin Ao Fen fig is biggest fig in China,it is similar as Mei Li Ya fig.

These pictures was taken by my friend in his fig garden.

So we think it is the biggest fig variety in the world that we have seen ever.

If anyone's interested in any Jin Ao Fen plants, let me know I have 2, 3 footers I have to get rid of. Bought from the seller off eBay last year and cloned her.

Zhou,I know this guy who sell $50.00 on ebay. he is one of our chinese fig funs.

but most chinese fig funs think there are some USA fig varieties are much expensive than the figs from China. :)   some USA fig varieties are more than $100.00 on ebay.

Here we go again. Officers come and confiscate imported cuttings, it happened to many fig members... Our climate is not the same as in China, and their soil is different also.
xXX, why don't you post your own pictures with a  ruler behind, so we can tell how big they really are?  Chinese hands are small, so not a good comparison, I hav figs that don't fit in my large hands.

Grasa,I grew this Jin Ao Fen fig from this year only. but Jin Ao Fen is growing very fast,just come out several figs on it. but the weather is getting cold, I don`t think those green little figs can be ripe in this year . :(

I've never seen so much info on the Orphan I received from UCD last year!
THANKS!! I didn't know it had roots from China. I'd been looking for an exotic cultivar that
could produce in the cool, coastal Pacific NW and I'm hoping this may be it! Tomorrow it's
going into a larger container filled with Promix!!
