I ordered a few things from him a few months back and again a few days ago. The figs I received were pretty decent plants for the price. My LSU gold came in with 2 figs on it, and the lsu purple is putting out a couple figs now. I wish I would have waited a few days to place my most recent order after seeing this sale.

I just stumble across this nursery online and this thread. After going through their list, I noticed that they are claiming to sell "Ischia Black" fig trees. Pot size reads 4.5 inch--20 oz. Has anyone ordered Ischia Black from them? Is it a true strain?https://almostedenplants.com/shopping/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=71&cat=All+Fig+Varieties

Notice they are out of stock as most they offer. Probably had a few at one time.

I bought a Wuhan from them a few weeks ago. The small tree came well packaged and healthy. I am quite happy with it and the communication from the company was fast and informative.

I've been looking at that site for a little white. There is one fig called Creech Family Sugar Fig. It sure sounds interesting. Has anyone purchased that variety? Is it a type of celeste?

Pictures can be misleading. But I think they are honest mistakes.

I received another fig from them yesterday and I am very happy with it. Just proves the first order was no fluke. Well packaged, very healthy and perfect communication.
