I am very proud of having gotten off my ass and created a list of my in-ground figs, so I'd like to share with this forum as I did with ourfig.com community.

Amazing collection, Frank, and great of you to share on the forums. I love the tale of Ponte Tresa, especially from a life-long connoisseur  of figs. I look forward to my baby PT fruiting this year, if all goes well. I would like to know any opinion you might share on Violet Dauphine as well. I've always been curious about this elusive variety. Thanks again for sharing this!

Looks like you have a beautiful place and that huge Celeste seedling fig tree looks amazing.
Also great job on those videos I really enjoyed them! 
You have inspired me to do a video for my little haven.
Happy New Year 2016!

Congrats Frank, you have really built a super expanded collection since I first purchased from you. I guess I should toss my old map of your in grounds away and save this list. Good going.

Wonderful site. I hope you don't think I am nitpicking, but I think I saw a few misspellings. Check Acciano, Thibodeaux and Troiano (one dialect) or Trojano (another dialect). You have put an immense amount of work into both cultivation and website. I wish I had your gumption.

Frank,
In the PT section, where you posted the Rob's photos, the fig next to the palm trees is a Black fig (not very good one).
This is the photo mentioned above by garden.
The left photo is of PT.

How did the PT fruit looked inside for you? Was it intense red also?

Igor, Rob IM'ed me the errors and I've edited the blog. Thanks.

The inside was not as red as from the mother tree, nor the green. I gave a few possibilities for that on the blog.
