Unk. Chiappetta

Here's a fig that varies in size. Today they are the smallest that I've ever seen them. These figs were grown in my greenhouse so I could control the water. They were like eating candy. A nice melon flavor. I give it a 9.

Jon has this and calls it Cosenza. That's were it originates from.

Its a nice looking fig Art even if it is small. Thanks for sharing

Art, the one you gave me is doing great. It has a ton of figs on it for its size. I'll post when they get ripe. Things are still going slow for me - trying to stay patient. Thanks

Sounds and looks good Art thanks for sharing

This was the top dog tonight. It beat out LdA and Valle Negra.

Very good to hear Art.

Here is that tree I planted out as a rooted cutting last season. It might ripen a few figs and that is impressive considering what it has been through. These pictures were taken less than 3 months apart.

Wow! Brent, your tree looks so healthy. The leaves on it look pretty clean.

Must be those tillage radishes ; )

But seriously, my container tree has some deformed and mottled leaves this season, I don't remember if that plant did last season or not.

I sprayed Avid and Forbid for mites recently because I saw some on several plants in my container area; some of these plants never showed any "FMV" symptoms before, but do now. Not sure if the symptoms are really FMV, or just damage from the mites feeding, but a few plants have put out new leaves that look totally fine so far. Hoping the rest improve as well.
