Last May I received this fig plant from Brugmansia Quebec and it has grown quite tall. Right now it's in a 3-gallon pot but it will be put in a 7-gallon pot in the next few days.

Is anyone growing it?  Any fruit pictures and information on its taste would be great.  Just curious what I can expect from this tree next year.

I'm the same as you, I got my plant this spring also. My EPSH I believe has one fig growing, lets see if it ripens.

I ordered EPSH this spring, not sure why , They was not able to deliver it, I received Colasanti Dark and Jean-Talon, both was very small tree ( 6 leaves or less) at June, I put them in 1 G pot,  It has about 12 leaves now with 5-6 figs as quarter size, It is too late now, I removed all figs to force it to grow up faster. 

I found out today from Dany that this fig was named after a school in Quebec.

Any other fig trees you bought from Dany?

Last year I bought Cod de Dame noir, it has lots figs near ripening now, and Texas everbearing have so many figs on it, very productive, Hoping that it can ripening in time.
good luck for your epsh

The best fig tree is unknowned cutting from good guy in Montreal, Its huge size of brebas are ripening now, better than Dalamatie/LDA figs I have.
Let me know what happen to EPSH.

Hi Ricky,

I have bought 16 plants from Brugmansia (14 varieties).

Last Sept. I bought brown turkey, celeste, desert king, kadota, lsu purple, olympian, violette de bordeaux, yellow long neck.

This year i bought cvetko, epsh, bourjasotte noire (2), colasanti dark, lattarula, black mission, kadota (to replace the kadota from sept. that died). I had ordered black madeira, petite negra and MBVS but for some reason they were not available and therefore had to pick other ones or get my money refunded.

Unfortunately none of my plants from Brugmansia or the ones I grew from cuttings have produced figs!  I don't think my fig trees are getting enough sun. I gave 3 of my duplicate fig trees (started from cuttings) to my aunt and she has figs on all three! Recently I cut down a tree in my backyard so maybe next year I will get some figs from my  plants. 

I did however buy a large fig tree (locally) with figs on it and therefore was able to enjoy some brebas in late July.

Thanks torontofig for the info.  

Being patient is extremely difficult for me especially when I keep seeing all the wonderful pictures (and I love them all!) that people are posting. Maybe that will be me next year posting pictures of my figs.  I have about 40 fig varieties now (about 50-55 plants) so some of them HAVE TO produce figs next year.  I would have had more varieties but my failure rate of starting cuttings was very high (only about 30percent of my cuttings survived!).

I would love to put a few plants in the ground in the next few years but it's not going to happen! I don't want to make additional work for myself. Right now the plan is to winter most of my plants in the garage and some of the smaller ones in my basement.

Well, you need to be patient for fig trees.
Don't worry, my rooting skill was even worse, Last year, I paid $200 to buy cuttings from Harvey, All fail.
This year, I try rooting with inexpensive cuttings, I have about 65% successful rate, It takes time to learn.

Beside more Sun light, I think that your fig trees need more, Just like other fruit trees, Fruits are leftover processed nutrition after feeding roots/leaves/branches, you may think about that give them good spring fertilizer, like cheap local worm casting or MG fertilizer, Then at Summer,  lower nitrogen fertilizer like Tomato fertilizer or Fruit trees fertilizer.

I find couple good fig trees for our low heat area, I am reducing varieties, It is too much work to take care of them, I need 30 min daily to water them.

Here are couple varieties grow well here, Thinking to put them in 55 gallon barrel soon.
Look forward to see your picture of figs next year.

 
 
 

Thanks Ricky for your suggestions.  I agree with you that having too many varieties is a lot of work.  My goal is to find maybe 10-20 varieties that do really well (and I like how they taste) in Southern Ontario and then get rid of the  others.  However, the ones that were from my mom's house I will always keep (even if they don't produce figs for me).

Your figs are so big!  Great pictures and great figs!

I just noticed, about half an hour ago, that my EPSH has little figs, but of course they won't ripen this year.

Hi i buy my trees from Dany and this year i decided to go meet him. So the EPSH stand for école professionnelle of Saint-Hyacinthe and he stated that this tree in fact two of them grow in the yard and i got cuttings. The cvetko is a famely tree from a friend and the drumondii is a tree that comes from the rose drummond a rose grower well knowed in quebec. Hope it helps.

Thank you Vincent for the information.
