Hello.  I had a little tree damaged in a storm so I decided to get these cuttings out to the members here.  If you want them just PM me.  Of course, if you have something you'd like to send my way then great, but its not required.  I'm looking for a good green fig like a JH Adriatic or something, but I'm open to whatever... or even nothing at all.  If you want them just holler.  The Beall has FMV in case you are wondering.  Here is a pic of the leaves:   Bealle.JPG

Mario,

You might want to verify if you really have Beall as your leaves don't match those on the F4F Variety page and look nothing like what I have in my collection as "Beall".  Can you post photos of the fruit and identify if they are Breba or Main crop?

This is fig from Navid. The leaves match this post at:  //figs4funforum.websitetoolbox.com/post/my-2-underarted-fig-7030340?highlight=beal&pid=1283852954#post1283852954
They spell it Beal, maybe I misspelled it. I know there are at least 2 figs that go by this name with different spellings. This one is dark with light amber flesh, if that helps.

It is VERY sensitive to cold. But a very sweet tasting fig.

Good to know about the lack of cold hardiness of this one guys thanks.  And Sparky... Maybe a match, can't be sure though look at the fruits.  Mine has FMV so the leaves could be a little different because of that.

Sparky:  Did you post your leaf picture the other day in a different post?   If you did, I saw it and this Beall leaf and thought they looked the same (amateur eyes here), except for the veining at the bottom of the leaf near the cankles.

The leaves on both of these plants are very pretty.  I've got a young Beall.  Too early for the pretty leaves.

My beall has similar leaves like your's, but mine has not fruited yet, so I'm not 100% sure of the variety.
