White Medeira

Looking for white Medeira can anyone help me?-Elias aka frogboy

I been looking for it too. Go I d luck

Isn't White Madiera suppose to be the same as Coll De Dame Blanc? I thought there was an old post about that? 

I have never heard of white Madeira. I'd be interested to know if it was the same as CDD blanc

I should have either cuttings or trees available for sale next year.  I am pretty certain nobody has it available yet.  I believe Tan only shared it with Steve and Steve sold one set of cuttings (which I bought and grafted) and I think gifted a cutting to a friend.

Dave, I've not heard that claim before, the fruit and leaf shape appear different to me.  Some of my trees have fruit on them so I will post samples when available.

It was my belief that Adriatic JH was possibly white madeira..?

Good to know Harvey, looking forward to seeing pictures

Harvey,put me on the list for that fig.

I should have some cuttings for sale again this Fall as well from the White Madeira #1.  It's a healthy plant but not a rampant grower like some varieties thus I won't have a huge number of cuttings.  In addition to the sale to Harvey, I've traded and given this variety away to a few other growers so there are some others who have it now.  Mine has a good crop on and I'll post on them once they ripen.
 

Dave, I had not heard anything about the relationship between WM #1 and CdDB but I have grown the UCD CdDB and WM#1 and they are not the same.  For one, thing WM#1 ripens earlier.  It seems like Tam did post something about a CdDB tree growing in ground (as well as others including WM#1) so maybe that's where the confusion arises.

Brandon, I believe Herman2 once mentioned in a thread that he thought Adriatic JH might be a "white" fig that comes from Madeira given its similarity in leaf shape to Black Madeira.  But I think that was speculation.  Maybe he can weigh in here to clarify.  

Another complication is that I think Tam posted on (or at least mentioned) one or two other White Madeira figs in addition to WM#1, hence the numbering system.  But it was WM#1 that he showed the most photos of in that very long thread.

Hey, Steve please give me heads up when you post or put any of these up for sale, very curious about wm1. Thanks for opening this up again.-Elias

Your right Steve I had too go back and look and refresh my memory in the post they were comparing it to a couple of figs https://figs4funforum.websitetoolbox.com/post/white-madeira-6503911
