Last year I bought a small fig tree in a 1 gal. pot and it had "Fig, Purple Passion" on the label.  I have no idea what the ripe fruit looks like as it hasn't matured any fruit yet, but it had two hard, green figs about the size of golf balls still hanging on it when we had a hard freeze about a month ago, at which time they fell off.

Just a long shot--anyone ever hear of this name as a synonym for another variety?  I didn't spend much on it so if I already have it, it's no big loss.

I'm afraid right now I wouldn't be much help because I can't even recall what the leaves were shaped like. I stuck it in the fig ghetto and promptly forgot about it until the other day.

Like I said, just a long shot question.... Thanks!

Do you have more details about the seller?

Im afraid that I have never heard of this name.

GoodDaughter If I were you I would email the nursery and inquire as to were it came from and how it got it's name I believe this is a new variety or name being carried and maybe they can give you more info, If it is the nursery that I'm thinking of then John or Jeff will respond hopefully you can get some more info I believe they even answer their phone calls. Good Luck

I got this at a nursery in the north Houston/Spring TX area called "The Arbor Gate".  I tried asking where they bought the figs from and they were not able to help me, which is why I thought I might ask here.

I guess time will tell.
