Paradiso

RCantor sent me this fig cutting, and it's thriving in ground.  I have no clue which Paridso it is, and there are many.  Bob?  Which one did you send me.  That thing is growing.  No figs this year, but it's getting it's sea legs!  Which Paridso did you send me?

Some came from heaven, others did not...

Thanks so much for you help, as if............

Whatever Bob sent me is growing big and strong.  Looking forward to figs next year.

As far as I am concerned, I advice that the original (green-skin/red-pulp) Paradiso, initially sourced by Gene_DC to be the most true.
Also my later (ukn) GM#9, independently locally found and compared & grown side by side, turned to be of same leaf, fruit, timing, etc., .

OK I have this fig tree, blasting into the sky.  Is it, or is it not Paridso, and which brand is it?  Only Bob Cantor can answer.  The tree is strong first year in ground.  No figs, but anyone can see the tree is determined.

One hell of a [good] fig!

I'll trust you George.  This a fig that will fight to live on hard, rocky soil, but it's in a gopher cage, in ground, and next year, no gopher will touch it!  Can't wait to post a photo of the figs here, but I'm not really sure which paridso it is.  It's alive and healthy!

I haven't gotten any figs yet.  Post leaves and figs and someone will tell us both.  It could have been 450 or 646 from Jon or Bronze VS from Drivewayfarmer.

It's it's first year, and there are no figs, but it's growing huge.  I think next year there will be figs.  You should see what JD and I did to the mysterious persimmon.  We have no clue!
