A Persian White surrounded by delicious Sals Corleone. They were all good and each had honey with slight melon flavor.

Pino, the Persian White is in a five gallon container that is buried about eight inches and heavily mulched. The Sals Corleone is a four year old tree and it is planted in ground as of this spring. Thanks for looking.

Nice! How was the Persian White fig? Everyone needs to have a Sal's Corleone. It's a workhorse fig

Leon, it is a good fig and will only get better. Here is what I said in my July pic and taste profile. Also below is a link to that thread.This is a large fig and it weighed in at 75.93G or 2.67 oz. The flavors appeared to have been affected by the rain. It was still a good honey dew melon like with just a little seed crunch. It is a little figgy tasting. Another one of those that is a keeper just for it being rare and pricey.http://figs4funforum.websitetoolbox.com/post/persian-white-72314-7004948?pid=1283660416#post1283660416
