Native De Aregentile (Hative)

Here is my young argentile fig plant .

I realized i have only 2 pictures of leaf in all my pictures of fig plants back when i was showing what FMV looks like under a grow light .
I was surprised i never documented this plant more than that, so i took some pictures this morning for that reason.
Plant is in second full growing season and this season growth pick up a little , hope to taste a few figs next season.

Hey Martin. I started one from UC Davis last year. Mine's a little less branchy than yours.  I got five or six figs from it last year but they were very late and didn't have much flavor. It has only tiny figlets now, so I doubt that I'll get anything better this year. Still, I'm optimistic about this variety, and I'm hoping that the wait will be worth it.

I also got thre figs on mine but they started early,and am sure they will ripe properly,because I removed four other fruits.

Ripens later for me, but well worth it.

i have two rooted from UCD started this season.  they don't look quite as good as yours ;)

Martin,

Thanks for posting. I have a rooted cutting but been struggling all Summer.
Lost the only little leaf it had but the twig still looks good.

I will hold on to it till the end of the season. Maybe till it dries up.
But I hope it pulls through.

Good luck with your Martin and keep us posted.

Ciao Martin, you always take such beautiful meticulous photo's very nice healthy tree. I have never heard this tree before. What is its origine?
