Turned into a fig addict!

I started to collect figs in 2010. Started with a Vista fig from Jon. I just realized I now have more fig varieties then any other fruit tree (LOL!). Thank you from those generous ones on the forums, ebay, and a few other online nurseries. Here is what I got so far;

Atreano
Capelas
Carini (Figgy Frank)
Conadria
Dark Portuguese
JH Adriatic
LSU Gold
Marseilles vs black
Panache
Paradiso
Wuhan
Zidi

I already gave away a Brunswick and Kadota. Does anyone see any redundancy on the fig list. Btw, most of these figs are destine to be grown in FL. So if there is anything on the list that performs horrid in high humidity and rain conditions, give me a heads up! Thanks everyone again for your time and generosity.

For me Paradiso splits very easily and I think it would be more so for your climate.

If i remember right Zidi needs the wasp.

Tonycm,

Thanks for the info, I thought fig wasps may be in South Florida, but I have been searching and could only find that native fig wasps are there not the carp fig type? I did find references of Paradiso being similar to Brunswick, if that is the case it may be one on the list to get remove. Maybe I could pull it off in containers...

Mike,

Thanks for the information, that clears Zidi up. I hope all is going well in your garden.

Also had Zidi and to the burn can it went just like Pastilliere.
