Fico Laghel

This is Laghel main crop. A rare common fig from northern Italy. Sweet and jammy almost like a preserve. Skin is thin and didn't split in our high humid weather so far .

Hi Vinny.
Beautiful looking fig, that one will be on my want list!
Enjoy it.
Vito

Yea vinny. Great fig that can with stand moisture issues. You did well finding this one !! I need this one too lol 90% of my collection has soured this year. Louisiana so rain and humidity is a big problem. Especially this season

Nice and ripe! 
So many figs so little time.
Do your figs in containers or in ground?

Vito,
Thanks, I really love this one.

Richie,
So far this one didn't split and the flavour was really rich if I put it that way .Even my RDB's were watery.

Pino,
Thanks and you are right , so many figs out there , I want them all figs lol. I grow my trees in containers although there are few in ground. I will put 10-12 trees in ground this season , mostly breba specialists.

Good looking fig KK I like the look of the skin when it cracks like that Enjoy 

This fig is also on my very much want list. My father was born in Northern Italy.
Phil from Northern Ohio

Vinny,fig looking good,did you manage to get the main crop to ripen outdoors? Or do you have a poly or green house?we have had quite a long summer so far,I've seen some great figs locally on my fig hunts,most high up in the sun out of reach.

If you like Italian figs I'd be happy to send out cuttings for my unknown Italian fig I have for you to try when the tree goes dormant.

Dave,
Thanks , I love them cracking too.

Phil,
I do have some other Italians , will keep you posted here.

Haslamhulme,
Thanks mate for the offer , we'll be in touch shortly. Yes its outdoors now although it had a head start in the greenhouse till mid June ( it's England lol) , it's really hard work when you have so many but it's worth it.

Fico Laghel available now. Only two cuttings this season .
