I have an Italian Black from Becnel's. Last year it gave some suburb figs, late in the season. It died to the ground in the winter so I'm not sure if it will give any figs this year or not. __________________ Zone 7b (Central Arkansas) Seven trees in the ground: Hardy Chicago, Celeste(?), LSU gold, Italian Black, Southern Brown Turkey(?), Strawberry Verte, and Unk yellow. Trees in pots: VdB, CdD, and Sicilian?

Sometime I think that we are slaves to figs. As long as we are here they will never die. We propagate and spread them all over, even places that they would never have grown themselves. Maybe this is their grand plan? __________________ Jarrett Spokane, WA ZONE 6A Proudly Serving in the United States Armed Forces, 2009-Present Everyone should have a green thumb Figs: Nero600m

Interesting perspective Jarrett. Brian, is that right up against the levee south of Belle Chasse? I was working down there a couple months ago, and saw something like that as I was jogging down the levee for exercise... __________________ Cal - Brusly, LA Zone 9a

Hmmm instead of pods.....aliens are figs and looking to take over the US by making us want them and sharing them with others. I could swear I hear a low whisper sound each time I go outside the sounds like "Get more Figs, You need more figs" Brian perhaps the BT? I adopted from Lowes was born at Bechnels? Ah a creole baby.
