My Video

Here is video i did today .


great video, Martin! Thanks for sharing!!

Martin,


Thanks for posting this.  It is VERY helpful to see varieties that are new to me on video.  If a picture is worth a thousand words a video is worth a million.  Great collection.

Nice trees Martin.  And you did a great job on the video, no too fast, and no shaky shaky.  Butch was nonchalant about it tho.

thank you martin. nice video

do you ever put any of your pots in ground or allow the roots to penetrate the soil?

Great video Martin, very nice. I really enjoyed see all the trees that you have been talking about. Your voice remind me of someone else from up north, Ricci over in Penn. It must be a northern thing just like we have our southern thing. One of these days I'd like to do something like that.

Thanks for putting it together.

I really admire your patience on a lot of different levels.  Thanks.

Very enjoyable, Martin. It is always interesting to place a voice to a name.

Gotta tell you, though, you are a patient man. Those "almost ripe" figs would not have lasted a few more days in my yard...especially with the wife around,.

Frank, thats exactly what I was talking about.

Absolutely, Ed.

I think Martin may have been toying with our emotions a little bit.

Hi and thanks for the comments.
Theman7676 to answer your question no i never have let the roots grow into the ground.

FMD - You write

Absolutely, Ed.

I think Martin may have been toying with our emotions a little bit.


I know your funnin but in all seriouness due to weather they stalled but the chill kept them nice regardless and they will be just fine in 2 more days or so.
I probably post some pictures of them as the season is coming to an end here. 

Nice video Martin.
Thanks a lot for the tour.
Plants look great

Thanks! Great to see the varieties up close.

Great Video Martin, really enjoyed seeing all the different varieties you have.

Very nice. Like Frank and Ed...those 'couple more day figs' would have been picked my wife, children or by me. If not, the most certainly would have been pecked.

Enjoyed watching your video, Martin. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Very nice Martin. Very nice! Doggies are beautiful also along with your trees. You have an orchard for sure now. Nice to see mother of Ronde. I couldn't place words to taste of Ronde for me. It was beautifully ripened but I was unable to place words to taste but very very good. Husband agrees Ronde sticks out in taste very very much as completely differenta! Ciao

Ciao Maggie,
after i post video i noticed several trees missing in it. One the
Fico Abruzzese .
Here i moved it to take picture clear picture. 
The leafless one next to it im fixing it from someone that i not mention here called "Valle Negra" like you hear i also hear this is very good tasting .

A great showing of figs.


In particular, I like how Martin; very, veeery gently squeezes them figs to check
for the correct ripeness -- more or less, the same way I do check mine out...

Ciao Martin, It looks beautiful (Abruzzese) I am very happy for it. This tree is part of my heart, very very very sentimental to me. You need a Valle Negra, I will recommend for everyone this variety. It is very good for you. Ciao!


George i just went to check the figs on VdB and ate them, yes nice ripe and i like them a lot. Just a few left now on that tree most figs are spent for season here on my tree except a few stragglers here and there.

Yes Maggie Valle Negra its there in picture to right of Abruzzese in post # 20 thats staked and tied.  Hopefully it makes it back to health before season ends here.
Ciao.  ; )

Martin,

Thanks for sharing this video. Such beautiful plants and full of ripe fruit.

And oh so close to the fence, you make it easy.

I somehow deleted the sounds on my laptop and having trouble re-installing it so I coundn't hear you.

Thanks Pal.

Hi Rafed only 2 accesible outside the fence but 1 VdB only has a few stragglers on it the other my hardy chicago is done .
Ever find you missing fig tree ?
