Got cutting in Jan.2013 from a very good forum member. Thank you. To my taste, this is a very good fig, not to sweet, has thick jam like fig taste. It is a keeper for me. At night I have been putting it in the garage, so some one does not eat the figs. What we do for our figs.

Thanks for looking,
Bugs

It is 36" above a 5 gal. SW and the same around, 6 or 8 more figs on. If only I had a greenhouse.
