Good day, the rain has stopped, the humidity is here, the sun is out and it is hot as a firecracker outside! That's a saying we say down South! I did not think these figs would be any good but they were. Each and every one of these were excellent. The Brown Turkey trees are loaded. My wife said, Piedmonte tasted like a super ripe strawberry. It has that great texture and crunch and richness. The tree is about 4 years old in a pot and about 7 feet tall. I think I got it from George. There are about 20 more figs on the tree. They have the perfect round shape. I've covered each figs with gorganza bags and placed ant bait at each tree. I have no ants at the moment but I know they will be back. Here are a few pictures taken today with my wife's new Christmas camera. Enjoy! __________________ Dennis Charlotte, North Carolina/Zone 8a

Piedmonte is the only name it had on plant when I got it. It's going to be one of the best figs! Trust me. __________________ Dennis Charlotte, North Carolina/Zone 8a
