I love this variety I found in Easton, Md a few years ago. It is delicious, early and very hardy. These are three of the criteria I look for in a fig. My wife's family comes from the Abruzzo region of Italy, so I was very interested in this variety. I researched this tree years ago and had to get cuttings. See the story here:

I'd like to share this interesting variety with the figs4fun community ( in the lower 47- cannot ship to California). I am sending three cuttings ( see pic) for nine dollars plus three dollars shipping. I have enough for ten packs. The cuttings should have three nodes, and I have found this variety to be fairly easy to root. You can paypal me the money and I will try to ship ASAP. Please PM me if you'd like to try this variety, and please let me know if you have any questions regarding Unk. Teramo.

Thanks,

Bill

It's a great story, and a nice looking fig, Bill. Wonderful of you to share.

PM sent. Thanks Bill.

PM sent, Thank you

Thanks a lot for sharing! Fantastic! PM sent.

Well done discovering an early, hardy fig and sharing the bounty. Pm sent, thanks Bill.

Sounds great Bill.  Did you look up how cold it got for this tree the last two winters?

pm sent!

Hi. I think I can satisfy all requests now, but I am going to have to stop at this point temporarily. I sent all PMs to people if I am certain I have enough, but I can't take any more until I know I have enough for others. I will post again with the amount remaining. Thanks so much for your interest! I hope Unk. Teramo does very well where you are growing it.

If all goes well we should have areal map of Teramo province. In the center the town of Teramo, top right,under arrow San Vito di Valle Castellana ( my home town)in background Gran Sasso, the highest mountain in the Appenines

 The fig sounds like the perfect fig.    I wish I had room...........

@ Mario_1   that map is gorgeous~! Just looking at it makes me feel homesick for San Vito di Valle Castellana, and I've never been there. 

I just checked my storage bags and found another bag of Unk. Teramo ( I thought I had more than just one bag). If any others who didn't get any that want some, please feel free to PM me. I really do like this variety and have no motive other than to see if others end up enjoying it as much as I do. I plan on sending them out on Monday morning. Thanks, Bill

Can I get in on this if you have any left?  Thank you!

Soni, my village San Vito is below the tree line at about 2300 feet and the views are unbelievable, from the top of our mountain "mountain of the flowers"you can see everything you see in picture plus more including Yugoslavia accross the sea

Just arrived and planted, thanks Bill. The 9 pots with no cups are the ones, they got cupped after picture . The background is the summer home for my pots, the red barn is where they spent the winter

The missing picture

Just received my very fat (and very healthy-looking) Unk Teramo cuttings.  Can't wait to get these growing.  Thanks again, Bill!

Vigorous and quick to root, leaves resemble the mother plant's.
Thanks again, Bill!

My plant is now producing figs even though I just rooted it this winter. Wow, the figs are good too. Very good actually. Thanks again for this plant!

Dang, Drew! That looks great. You definitely have my first year trees beat. Your tree is even bigger than a lot of my second year Unk Teramos. I think the mature fruit ( 3 yrs+) is better, but I'm glad you like the fruit already. Could you PM me your secret growing blend? I'd love to try it.

I can't take that much credit, it's been so hot here. Last year we had one day in the 90's. It was cold! This year we have one day not 90! Well not really but we have had over 30 days of 90 plus heat. I think that helped.  Plants are in a southern exposure. So full sun.
I make my own potting mix as I have around 140 containers. 3 parts pine bark fines, 1 part Pro Mix (I used to use straight peat, still do with blueberries), 1/3-1/2 part diatomaceous earth the size of perlite. I use Optisorb oil absorbent which is 100% DE, sold at O-Reilly's auto parts.
Then I used plant-tone (or Garden-tone, don't remember?) on top and also Dynamite slow release. I like Dynamite because it lasts 9 months. Which in practice is about 6 months. All season anyway!
I buy that here. Free postage!
Here are most of my other first year plants  (other plants there too). Some (in back) are 5 feet tall!



The Teramo figs are starting to ripen. I had the first one yesterday. Thanks again Bill!

WOW Drew, what  beautiful Trees and Figs! Good Job! Mine is still small! : )
