Happy new year.  Checking Rain Tree website, I don't see them selling Bebera, Fiorione d Ruvo,  etc. I doubt Fiorione d R will do well in Indonesia as it is a San Pedro variant unless there are fig wasps in Indonesia. Varieties that have done well in Malaysia are Negronne, Conadria & LSU Tiger. Black Mission is an aggressive growing tree and it will be huge if grown in Indonesia given the warmer + wetter conditions. What is the going price of fig trees sold in Indonesia ? Here in Canada, the price is around US$20 for 1 gallon pot. Tree is usually about 2 to 3ft tall, mostly single trunk.

HI Paully...thanks , .You are right...., I checked to their website they only sell Petite Negri and some others varieties . but May be you have any  information the shape of the leaf  for those varieties if you have them at   your home collection.  I bought them locally equal to USD40 -USD50  for 1 gallon pot . Tree is usually about 40-50 cms high  , but I still doubt  the name of varieties are labelled correctly  on those figs by the local nursery .

Hope more  input from others member who have those varieties at home
Best regards

Zaitun, I have FD Ruvo & Vista. Unfortunately I cannot remember their leaf shapes. Used to have Mission too. It was an aggressive grower & it got too big in a hurry. Hence I got rid of it. Wow, that's pricey especially comparing the daily general wage of Indonesians. A good web site to checkout is:

Hi Paully.
Tq  for your valuable information . Yes , Fig Tree here is quite expensive , especially for rare Europe and US varieties. However , Some of Middle east figs varieties are little bit Cheaper  is about USD5-USD10 for 5 gallon pot.
