My first cutting from the forum 18 months later. Thanks again Marius. It was very good despite ripening in 2+ inches of rain (thankfully I missed the 4+ inch torrent Dennis got) and highs in the 70's this weekend.

It also made it through this winter very well with only a few inches of die-back. Down below 10 on 3 nights and it only got a blanket + a black garbage bag for protection.

It has much better flavor than my Celeste and is much sweeter Chicago Hardy. Seems to ripen about 5 days earlier than the CH it is next to.
 

Looks to be a keeper, cold hardy and good taste, a nice size fig too. That looks like a silver half dollar...

Very nice. I hope it becomes as good a fig for you as it did for me in its first year last year. However, my tree died and did not recover. I
do have a replacement coming.

Looks sooooooo good! Marius will treat you right.

Looks good and excellent results for an 18-month-old tree.
