Black spanish
Violeta Bayern Feige

Thanx in advance.

Dave, here is link to my Black Greek    http://figs4funforum.websitetoolbox.com/post/black-greek-91913-6533381

I wonder if Violeta Bayernfeige is the same as Nordland bayernfeige?

I am not sure. I did receive a couple nordland cuttings in the same package listed as nordland. Violeta Bayernfeige has really peaked or should I say got my mind working, and I like it. But I can't really find anything on it.

I wonder if violetta bayern feige is the same as bavarian violet.

Bayernfeige Violetta (Bavarianfig Violetta) is not the same as Nordland.
It is a cultivation by the german nursery Plattner located in Bavaria Germany. This is their website:

Thanks christain the pic looks good, unfortunatly I don't speak much german. But its a good start.

You're welcome Dave!

No problem, if you have any questions just ask me and I will translate from German into English.

I'm just looking for info like origen, taste, avrege growth habbit, fruit production, and hardyness

Here is the translation

• probably the hardiest among the tasty figs
  
  
• hardy few days to about -20 ° C 
  at the protected site with winter protection
  
  
• early maturing , starting in mid-July possible
  
  
• Fruit weight to 111 grams possible
  
  
• very prolific , with each leaf a fruit is normal, 
  two fruits per sheet only in older plants and optimum nutrition
  
  
• very sweet and tasty fruit, 
  vitamin-and mineral-rich
  
  
• found earlier as a medicinal plant use
  
  
• slimming, digestion
  
  
• sensual making
  
  
• Uses: Fresh eating, salads, jam, rum, various desserts 

Right on that's the stuff right there. Thanx a million.

Anybody know about spanish black

Sensual making eh?

Aphrodisiac maybe. Didn't think figs did that for peeps. But I guess with there being a lot of figs out there that a couple could be. I donno

Garden_wisperer, I just found a video about bayernfeige violetta. You won't understand a word when Anton Platter is talking about planting a fig in ground in Bavaria, Germany for local bavarian tv...but you will be able to see the fruits of the BF!

Mmm a German woman talking about figs! Doesn't get much better. Thanks ;)
