Somehow in this country Vasilika Sika was imported,as a misnamed ,cultivar.
What you have there,is Dalmatian,also found under Stella,San Pietro,White greek name.
I got Vasilika Sika from Grece and it is much shorter in length,and different leaves.
It is got fruits but because it is in the third year they seem to be late ripening,and not ripe now.
Of course it could change in the future and become earlier.
When it get ripe the first time I will post pixies of fruits to see the difference.
Edit Note:I agree the fruits above are excellent tasting ,and rain resistant,and is hard to find any fault to the fig above so no wonder you love it.I love it too.
I am also wonder how good the new Vasilika Sika I have could be!,and is hard to imagine a better white fig than the Dalmatian type you have above under Vasilika Sika,name.

Wow,thanks for the information,Herman.

Herman, do you have photos of your Vasilika Sika fruits to show?  Thanks!

Andreas has Vasilika Sika in Greece and he should be able to provide some feedback on it.

i have to go with Herman on this one.
you have a beautiful and tasty fig but it is not vasilika sika.


Andreas, I had searched for Herman's photos but was unsuccessful, thus my post (and bumping this thread).  I will search again but if you find them please post a link here. :)

Thanks, Pete.  I just found it after being more persistent and came her to post the same link.  Thanks! :)

Harvey, Pete was faster... i didnt even get to search...
