Here are a few more cutting that were started on Jan.16 2 for 2 and in pots. Come on Summer.

Good growing cultivar in our yard .
Good luck with yours.

Violet Sollies is the last of the cuttings I started this year. (Thank you, kind donor!). Within the last hour I noticed that two of the cuttings have nice white, plump roots - and the others are still looking very healthy. Yippee!

Hello
This is a rather robust variety. With the correct treatment, climate and ideal surroundings later on when fruiting,  it may look like the pictures attached .
Good luck

One of the synonyms, Barnisotte, is not a synonym, as it's its own cultivar in the US.  So avoid using variations of Barnisotte to associate with VS.

This is one type i look forward to tasting up coming season .  ; )
Here is picture of my first year plant in 2012, 2 figs at 3 o'clock position were zapped by mother nature late last season and leaves displaying there fall colors.
Tree is young and crop not adjusted.

Martin it as good growth and nice shape for the first year. I would love to have one like that at

the end of this years. Did you put the fig in that pot right away or did you up pot a few times?

How is the taste of Violet Sollies compared to other popular fig variety?
