One of the best tasting black figs out there....everything you expect from a good fig...but,they need a long,long,hot summer....(not in Ohio.....).My tree is 4 years old,in a 55 gal pot,loaded with figs,but they need 3-4 more weeks of summer/heat...will see.Thanks for looking.

Marius, good luck with the weather. It would be interesting to see images of your CdDN loaded with figs. Generally I have heard people say that the CdD figs are only moderately productive. Mine are too young to really have an idea. Do you have any tips for getting them to be productive - pinching, etc? __________________ Steve MD zone 7a

Hi Marius, I have CDDB and love it. How does CDDNoir compare in taste? Do you think one is better than the other? __________________ WillsC's new fig forum: http://www.Ourfigs.com (and blueberries)

Good luck getting them to finish. Some years in Oh you have a chance maybe or maybe in a greenhouse at the end of the season would help. This year it feels like summer just started and within 10 days we will be down to the 40's at night. :( __________________ Jeff in zone 5b Wish list St rita,Vista,Sal's G,De la Reina, preto, Sport and pops purple red from Bellaclare, Planera Malta Black, Navid Unk Dark Greek,

Good luck getting them to ripen in time. I planted a cddn cddb and cddg all about the same time in my yard. They are growing well but I've been breaking off the figs on all three so hopefully next year I can try them. I am very much looking forward to these. __________________ Ryan Zone 9a SeLa, wish list:

Good luck. I loved dried figs when I was little, then I liked store bought BT when I grew. Now I only like mine. __________________ Weather: Winter: 10C+ Summer: 42C+ Growing: Syrian Unk., Atreano, Egyptian Unk., Lebanese Unk., Col de dame Gris, Beall, Negronne, Ronde de bordeaux, Brogiotto Bianco Wish List: Panache.
