It's probably still around because there wasn't enough heat for it to ripen. Really crappy fossils otherwise. __________________ Michael in Virginia (zone 7a) Wish list: Perretta,

Tried to make fig jam with them but they never softened up. Makes it hard to spread on bread. Lol __________________ Zone 6a Sarver, PA Wish list; Rafed's Genovese Nero

>>> So fig is native in North America? There are many Ficus.x species is the Americas. No, our Ficus carica (aka., common fig) originated from the Middle East and Western Asia regions. __________________ George, NJ_z7a.
