I bought a "black mission" from Home Depot a few weeks ago. It was a two foot tall bush profile without leaves. It is now densely covered in leaves. I will post a pic tomorrow.

Cool beans, we await pics.

I picked up a few of the "black missions" just to see what they really are.  Concerning the lemon fig, I have a few white Marseilles that were sold at Walmart from a different nursery in Florida last year but they were labeled as Green Ischia.  The fig is pretty good if left to get a little squishy or "jammy."  Look forward to seeing your pics Kevin.

Reminds me of a "nero" I saw at Lowes a month ago...wait untill fruit for positive ID.

Kevin what varieties do you see in your area, for me it's usually only Brown Turkey and Celeste.

@lewi - The Nero I got at Lowe's last year had Yellow figs with a very long neck.  They had another this year but the leaves doesn't look anything like the one last year, I bought it anyway, who knows.

The Lowes and HD had only Brown Turkey here in the Chattanooga area in pots. HD had a display of $25 fruit trees that included some 18 inch "Nero" figs in fancy metal pots. All were broken and looked bad but were all gone a few days later. My local nursery has for the first time stocked more than the Celeste and Brown Turkey. Had LSU Purple and Gold, Hardy Chicago, Desert King, and Mission. I thanked them and believe the area around them will support the $60 4-5 foot trees. The area has turned from agricultural to $500,000 and up homes in the past ten years, Peyton Manning lives there. Or I should has a home there, I think he has three.  So I have not bought a fig tree this year.....YEA!

I saw panache at Lowe's and vdb at HD. Was gonna grab a panache but every single one appeared to have fmv so I passed.
