Mario, by chance do you have a photo of a Romagnola fig? Thank you, Leon
I am happy that you are having a good fig year Mario. Great pictures.Phil From Northern Ohio
Leon, my Romagnolo is from Vivaio Belfiore near Florence , unfortunately I don't have any pictures, if I can beat my grandkids to it , I will take a picture. Try locking for Fico Romagnolo pictures
Phil, the Melanzana is from you, thanks. I went out in rain this morning to rescue it and this other bunch, I should have gotten them yesterday with the rest , I was kind of hoping the weather man was wrong.
Nice assortment of figs!What is the giant black fig on the 2nd plate?
Beautiful! I can practically taste them!
Pino, That's #300 Melanzana Calabrese from Phil Kobal 145 gm and delicious considering the rain
Wow, that looks amazing not at all like the other versions circulating. Did it actually come from Calabria?
Pino, maybe Phil will chime in and tell us where he got it from
Beautiful figs, Mario... Happy, happy time when you can collect so many good looking figs.... Phil... Do you have a US source info for the #300 Melanzana Calabrese? Seems like an awesome fig and likely cold hardy enough for my zone 6A...Thanks,Tony
Tony, the #300 is just my own code for my records. And I'm in zone 6a so it should produce for you ( in pot or protected). Your welcome to stop by if you're in this area
Mario, what a harvest! Very nice!
More pictures
Its looks like you had a pear and an egg plant on the plate with those two giant figs.
The pear is my #2 i call Pellegrino, the dark is #300 Melanzana Calabrese (Eggplant Calabrese) i got that cutting March 24th 2016 from Phil Kobal that's my second fig i have more on tree 2 of them should ripen this week, i will do a better job describing the pictures in future
The bowls of figs would make a great framed picture. Special, Mike
Hey, what a nice collection, Mario!
Nice photos of some beautiful figs Mario. Thank you for sharing. I also tasted a few of the Melanzana Calabrese from the same source. Amazing how quick this tree grew and produced figs this year.
Mag, Thanks for compliment Leon, yes I'm very happy and amazed also, March 24th a cutting and 6 months later I have 3 ripe fruit and a dozen more ready to ripe very happy with results, thanks Phil Kobal
