JD, it looks like a very nice fig. I'm growing "Bissiri Large" that I got through Ricci and Barry. I'm too lazy right now to go through posts and figure out what the relationship might be between Bissiri #1, Bissiri #2, and Bissiri Large. I suspect mine may be the same as Bissiri #1. From my discussions with Ricci it sounds like Ricci and Barry are planning on posting their results on these figs when they ripen later this season (showing leaves, fruit, etc). Hopefully they will also give a summary of the various Bisirri fig names and then simplify the nomenclature, as much as is possible, so that from that point on we can be sure we are referring to the same figs. Once mine gets large enough to fruit (presumably next year) I'll contribute to the post as well. Thanks Ricci and Barry for introducing these figs!

It looks like Bisiri Large, but then part of the problem with Bisiri's figs is the leaves are similar on all of them, at least to me, but I've always been pretty bad at leaf id. If the figs continue to grow a bit in size and are light colored inside, we can say Bisiri 1 = Bisiri Large. Ricci and I both agree that the larger Bisiri variety is superior, the smaller one is good, reminds me of Gino's and the 3rd i(don't hold me to the numbering) was an odd fig mixed into sales plants that Mr. Bisiri obtained from a friend. JD, I'm glad your plant is growing so nicely and you will soon have fruit to sample. Please post pics of the fruit when they ripen. Rewton, you most definitely have the Bisiri large, you will love this one I'm sure.

I also have a Bisiri large. It has been in fact the most robust, tallest growing of all my figs, and very productive. Have not tasted one yet however. Critters keep getting them.

smart critters Gina they know the good figs lol. I use those organza bags on each fig to minimize critter theft, slows down the birds and squirrels
