Dang looking at the chart, I see why I moved to the south east part of USA. Growing up and farming in ohio.....what a nice change of location here to retire. Then I learned I could grow figs here. No wonder all my varieties seem to grow as good as any other. All about location. Doug __________________ South Carolina zone 7b-8

SR Bill, Here in Phoenix zone 10-11, seems like the Figs do better in ground. The following have done well here in ground. VDB, Raspberry Latte have fruited well. Potted: Martencia Rim,Ponte Tresa,PeloponnisiakaAspra and CDD Rim have been growing well for 1st year.

Zone 6b Best producer this year was a Black Mission (assuming that's what it is) from a big-box store this year. Most of my other trees are still young.

No. I have a whole lot more. But these listed above were the best tasting this year. There were others.......I just didn't think they were all that great. Like Atreano and Papa Jon and others. __________________ Dennis Charlotte, North Carolina/Zone 8a

I have a big problem with figs souring. Out of approximately two dozen varieties I've fruited, only black mission has consistently produced high quality figs on a healthy tree, without any souring. __________________ Ken Tucson, Arizona Zone 8b
