My largest fig tree has been potentially identified as white marseilles. I bought it from someone who has been growing figs in town for a while, he didnt know the proper name. I only had the budget to buy one plant from him so i asked what the best fig was in his opinion, he told me this was the sweetest one that he had so i grabbed it.... ive learned that i dont so much care for super sweetness, as i do care for more flavor... this fig is kind of like putting some honey or sugar in your mouth, not much more than that. i have to say im not a huge fan but my wife enjoys them. The plant produces a lot and grows quite vigorously and its air layered well!
if anyone in SW ontario wants cuttings of this fig let me know and we can work something out
