Frank's Atreano has fruited for me for the first time this year, and so far has impressed me with heavy production for its size and bigger-than-expected figs. If it performs as well in the taste department, I'll be thrilled. Finger's crossed! Happy figging, y'all! __________________ Rick C.

Really nice tree. I rooted a few Atreano this year and some are looking nice but still very small. Thanks for pictures __________________ Barry

UPDATE: A backwards summer - A hot, dry June & cooler, rainy July. Picked the first of the Atreanos since it looks like a few days of overcast and sprinkles don't bode well for extended ripening. A real winner among greens. Beefy, sweet and figgy with a good bit of seed crunch - and this one had super tender skin (rare among the greens in my little collection - some tend to get a little pulpy). I think the pic is quite true to color: yellow-green skin and deep strawberry color with bit of amber. __________________ Rick C.

Nice one, Rick. I have an Atreano Gold, and I hope it is as nice as your Atreano looks. __________________ Gary in CA 9A Seeking: Bebera Branca*, Colonel Littman's Cross

Nice pictures can almost feel the taste. Nice sweet and sticky. Thank 's for posting these beautys. Hope one day i'will get cuttings on this side of the border. Costums are tough on this side.Ordered some fig plantes from Portugal but even with the sanitory certificate they did sent them back.Shame! Lucky you, enjoy them; they have to taste good by the way they look. Best wishes __________________ Rio Zone 5 Montreal Canada
