El Molino baby

I was generously gifted some Cuttings of El Molino, and I am really excited about this fig.  This is 2 little plants that have really started to grow like crazy.  Oh yea, and the Luna moth was there to greet me this morning.

You did good. Growing nicely. I have a 5 foot tree i just tried the pinching technique. Hope i get a fig.

Thanks Richi,  I hope you get some figs too! It has received some really good reviews.

good luck to you both. i have three trees successfully rooted and transplanted into 1 gallons last weekend. Thanks to the generosity of its founder.


  This little cultivar just keeps spreading the cheer...

      I up-potted two rooted cuttings of it into 1-gal pots on Monday myself.

I have heard many good things about this fig. If anyone has extra I would love to buy some. Thanks!

Wow, guys, what a surprise !
I am glad to see them rooting well. Good luck to all!

This is one I want too, hope you guys offer cuttings/plants in the future. I was happy I got a Pt Loma unk Craven's Craving. It is growing really well.
I also have one that is stubborn to grow. A Siblawi. It is growing, but very slowly. This is not misspelled, a similar spelling to another fig. This is named after the city in Indonesia. Next fall I should be able to harvest cuttings of these if a trade is better.

My two little "babies" rooted from last year are over five feet tall now with emerging little figs. I've planted one near the street to grow and give afternoon shade to parked cars. A blue jay was perched on it when I last looked, eyeing the emerging figs. I hope I get to taste some this year. A third tree and cuttings were shared with other members. Thank you, greenfig.

Beautiful figlets and what a beautiful moth. A blessing for sure!

Thanks everyone glad to hear it is making its way around... especially thanks Igor for sharing the love.

Did anyone without the wasp get some fruit from El Molino this year?  Mine are just in their first year, but dropped their fruit so I am wondering how everyone else's did.  I'm still excited about tasting it though... but the suspense AHHH.
