Hmm, seems this thread was resurrected but I don't know if the author is watching.  Does anyone else think this looks awfully like Yellow Long Neck?

Hello,

For fellow members interested in the Kashi-Yellow Giant fig, here is a url that provides a very nice graphic summary of the climate of Kashi (Kashgar). http://www.xinjiang.climatemps.com/

I was in Kashi a few years ago; it has a lovely, picturesque old city with a very friendly Yughur population.The climate is definitely arid.

Cheers.

He kindly gave me a sucker last spring, and I planted it in ground. It grows quite vigorously. I was able to sample a couple of figs last fall. The figs were indeed quite large, averaging ~100gram, with pretty good taste. Of course, my 6b climate may not be really ideal for this variety. But, still, it is a keeper for me.

Here are some pictures, enjoy!

It does seem.a lot like yellow long neck / long yellow. I know that there is a lot of chatter on those, but I got a tree of Vito's long yellow this year and the fruit looks like pictures I saw of that one. 125-175 grams, similar flavor and does well in cool climates. Looks similar too.

I will trim the tree in Nov/Dec when it goes dormant, and will probably have ~50 cuttings available. I will share the cuttings with fellow forum members who are interested in this. You pay a small shipping fee.
