No, they don't have any integrity. Whats with the floating in the water and holding them by a banana tree. These people make no sense to me. I get mad when people mislead other people. Yes, this is a fake add if you want my honest opinion. I personally think someone should shut them down, and any other of their associate nurseries. The figs even look like rubber to me. |

I have to agree with previous comments. As soon as the video started I knew it had Ty Ty written all over it. I have never purchased from them solely based on their website. That was before I read negative feedback about them. The website and this video have the strangest concepts. This video is just bizarre. Did they take a video production class from High School or a local community college? That would only teach you techniques. The ideas shown in the video are all them and just leaves me scratching my head asking what does anything here have to to with anything. Perhaps close by, hidden is another type of crop that might explain this behavior? This is pure speculation on my part though, but it might explain everything.

Nelson, I just looked at the cold hardy banana video, They look to me like a bunch of punks. I mean all the smiling and snickering, sure they are doing that, they know there getting away with it! lying and misleading the public. Even the one part the one guy puts the banana stalk down to his private area, they edited that part. shouldn't be any speculating now. Unbelievable. This ices the cake I hope for anyone who would ever want to buy from them, if I didn't know anything about them, and saw these video's or their website, I would think they weren't taking anything seriously and that would deter me from them immediately. Which it did. Shame on them. Just my thoughts. |

Hello everyone! Well spotted, Tim!
Watch this video on full screen an in HQ mode.
Pause on 0:39 you'll see how they masked the stems too high and the color is unbelievably uniform.
On 1:04 and you'll see two yellow figs on the background, on 1:20 more yellowish figs and the eye is painted over.
Just wandering what they're thinking making and posting these videos?..

Ciao Russo, what they're thinking is that we just fell off the turnip truck last week. Fortunately more experienced fig growers, hobbyists, will pick up on these lies, but I feel bad for the others around the country who don't know any better like we do. They're all being taken advantage of by these yo yo's . Good eye and investigating. Ciao |

Probably what they are showing about their fig is that no matter how much you wash it, paint it, clean it, even the dog wouldn't eat it. |

lol good one, I noticed that too. Im pretty sure if those figs are not that colour naturally then what they are doing is Illegal thats false advertising. Maybe its worth buying just to get some money in a lawsuit. |

Watched the cold hardy banana video. Everything in the background is still green, and they're not blowing any smoke with their breath-just pretending it's cold. Must have too much time on their hands---hopefully because no one is buying their plants or their crap!!!!! |
