Here is my only Chinese variety. Got it as bare root from one of my friends. Planted in 24" pot on 21/01/2016 . Chopped off some of the suckers and left only one to grow. Wonder how does it look and taste like when fully ripen.. :) __________________________________________________________________________ malikyusof, w.msia

I couldn't help but be attracted to this post since my wife is from China. Upon asking her and Googling XinJiang, I now understand that the province is mostly zone 6, and it is very dry. The 40 N latitude band slices XinJiang in half north to south, so perhaps those figs are hardy to zone 6? Do you know anything more about this fig tree? Would you ever plant this in the ground? Also, what zone are you in? Rather, where are you? __________________ Growing: Chicago Hardy, Black Mission, Lattarula, Desert King, Marseilles Black VS, Sal's EL, Marseilles White, Verte (Green Ischia), Blue Ischia, Violette de Bordeaux, Panache, Ronde de Bordeaux, & Brown Turkey.

You have an ideal climate to put it in the ground,not sure how the humidity would effect it. Most of my Figs in the ground have grown vigoriously and fruited. Good Luck!!!

I live in West Malaysia where we have a tropical climate with high temperatures and high humidity almost throughout the year. Normally during daytime temperatures would rise above 30°C (86°F) all year-round and night-time rarely drop below 20°C (68°F). ________________________________________________________________________ malikyusof, w.msia

Very nice looking variety. Your tree looks well-cared for, Malikyusof. Please post more poctures as the figs ripen. __________________ Meg-Hardiness Zone 10a Looking for...
