So I have an Atreano in the ground, which has the distinct leaves we all know. I have another source of 'Atreano' in a SIP but the leaves look different. The fruit from the pot are super delicious and appear to be Atreano in just about all aspects. Is there another type of Atreano floating around with spade leaves? If not, what varieties resemble this? These pics are from last year. Thanks In-ground Atreano __________________ Frank zone 7a - VA

I have a couple Atreano's including a RR. I will try to remember to look tonight. Question, the Atrreano breba I have tasted so far were less than impressive. Is this a function of younger trees or is the main crop significantly better than the breba? __________________ Greg North West Arkanasas Zone 6b Wish list: any SPECTACULAR cold hardy figs, and/or perhaps a Niagra Bl., Laradek EBT, Kathleen's Bl, Hunt, a great UNK or anything anyone wants me to have???

I have a violet de bordeaux that has all spade leaves except one branch all the figs are on spade leaves no figs on the branch with regular leave . Maybe your tree is having a similar growth issue __________________ RICHIE BONI HICKORY LOUISIANA ZONE 8B WARM HUMID WINRERS ARE VERY MILD LOW 20'S BUT WARMS RIGHT UP DURING THE DAY.

Frank My Atreano is a scion of a Belleclare plant, my fruit looks right but the leaves resemble your SIP plant and NOT the typical Atreano. Also, the leaves are really a mashup of different patterns. 2nd year tree. Photo is of a breba, which I rated an "8" for a breba.

Thanks, Rafael. I'll do some forum searching for previous Belleclare posts and see if I find a match. __________________ Frank zone 7a - VA

This is my Atreanno in early July. No brebas but loaded with figs that now are getting large. On this tree every leaf has the same pattern although a few young leaves are 3 lobed. __________________ Pino, zone 6, Niagara, JCJ Acres Wish; Peace on earth and more figs Italian 258, Galicia Negra, Luv, trade suggestions welcome.
