They do look good, unfortunately if what I've read is true and they are main crop figs, they will drop. __________________ Frank Tallahassee, FL Zone 8b North Florida Figs

Frank, I hope you 'get lucky'. They have been nothing more than a tease for me...for the past two seasons. __________________ jd \| tallahassee.fl \| zone 8b

Hi, From the leaf, Not the French/European dauphine . Your tree looks healthy . Good luck with the crop ! __________________ ------------------------ Climate from -25°C to + 35°C Only cold hardy figtrees can make it here

I have good news and bad news... Good news - Looks like the one remaining fig (I pulled the rest, wanting the tree not to divert energy into figs that would drop) was on its way to ripening. Bad news - the birds got to it before fully ripening. So, what's the deal with Dauphine from UCD? Is is or is it not a San Pedro fig? __________________ Frank Tallahassee, FL Zone 8b North Florida Figs

I have a Grise de Tarascon (supposedly a syn. for Dauphine) with some main crop figs the size of marbles right now... If they ripen i will post pics to compare to see if its the same. __________________ London, Ontario zone 6a Wish List: Martinenca Rimada, Genovese Nero AF, Galicia Negra, Brooklyn White

I have a Dauphine from UCD, so I am hoping for a main crop.

Tylerj, it would be great to know whether your GtD is Dauphine. I have Dauphine and Granthams Royal. My Dauphine had a die back for 2 seasons, hence only main crop figs where all will aborted. Presently I have over a hundred Granthams Royal figs and they are ripening -- they sure look like ripe DAUPHINE. We have already enjoyed some GR figs with more on the way.
