I just wanted to share some pictures of a fig grown near Mt Etna called Si Emma
      

Nice photos, is there any history or background, I am not familiar with this variety. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful fig. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice. Are the leaves typical of a Mt. Etna type?

No history just got it from a friend in 2012, who told me it was a fig from mt etna The leaves are similar to HC but with shorter lobes.

Kind of reminds me of Bryant Dark. It is similar to HC but has shorter lobes.

After reviewing my emails I see there at least 2 sources for this fig that I know of 1 person is in Ohio and says Si emma is from Emilia-Romagna, Italy. Another in palermo says its from the Mt etna area. The thing is in Italy many figs are passed around and just because it's found in one place doesn't make it it's place of origin.Often names are changed, at least this one has the same name even miles apart.
