Thinking hard, maybe I should name my GM#175 as 'Milena'.

Most likely this fig is a unique seeding.

Personally, I was impressed by this fig tree.

What you other guys/gals think?

Absolutely a great idea.  Be sure the figs for both girls are great tasting, though, so there wont be arguments later about who has the best fig/name! 

Be sure that Milena knows she was not named after the fig, though.

I am after some cuttings of that someday when someone has them available  :)

Having their first birthday, here is a couple of recent nice/hilarious pics of how they do look now.
They love to play with big brother's cars when he is not around (he is kind of possessive) ...
Quite a big joy!

Hello, Gorgi.
They are beautiful, there at the age when you can really enjoy them.
Time will fly by so quickly, Don't waist any of it.

Congratulations George!  So adorable!  What a blessing!  14 years ago we were blessed with fraternal twin granddaughters.  Going to cheer camp in Vegas to cheer them on this month!  Hardest part for me has always been which one do you look at when they both look at you with those "watch me, Nana!" eyes!  Really hard to focus on one at a time, but helps to have more than one grandparent around for sure!

Thanks ALL for those all good complements!

I just wanted to share with you that there are other
very more good important things beyond them good figs.

Live is short; enjoy it all while you can, can ...

PS; from my initial day-one joining this F4F forum it has grown to be more of a FcF  ("c" for commercial')  ...
