Anyone ever hear of it or something close to that name? Seller claims it produces a very large light green fig with a purple pulp. Thanks! |

Hi, Rafed
Is that a variety or just an Italian word? The seller says she was told it looked like a "funlenchano" but is not sure of the spelling. |

That's ok, Rafed. You may know more than you think! Have any pics of the parent tree/fruit? |

hmmm...sounds somewhat like it but it did not mention the huge breba fruit. It's a lead! Thanks Rafed!! |

Guys, guys: I googled the name and came up with the following. I may be on the wrong track, though. . |

Is it native to the beach and giggle when it hears music? |

Don't think it's the Falicciano Bianco. I think that is the name she was told, I just don't think that is the variety she has. When someone has a picture of the developing fruit but no others, I get suspicious. Thanks guys!
Here is the ad pic:

I have seen this and another listed for the past 2 years. Was always curious but never too interested. I have a ton of unknowns as it is.

Falicciano is suppose to be a san pedro type fig. My tree is in its 3rd season. No figs yet. My tree is from Adriano. |

Well...I won the auction! Paid $19.50 plus S&H. I did find an Italian variety named Fico Fillacciano/Filacciano that may be a match. According to the seller, her tree produces one crop beginning late June in TN. Time will tell! |
