The first petites I've gotten on my tree not allot of flavor I don't know if that is because the tree is young ?

Here's a couple of Wuhan's they were actually pretty good , the taste kind of reminds me of a cantaloupe  not a bad fig

The color of the inside of the Wuhan looks simply amazing. I love it.

Why do the two Wuhans look different or am I not seeing correctly, I thought the long neck might be a breba but mine is too young, so I have no experience just curiosity. I am glad I have one.

does "not bad" translates to it is "good"?  I am in love with the fig Wuhan, after much struggling to get it going, I have one small plant, one small fig in it.  I am hoping it rippens to tellme it is a good one. I don't want a "not bad" one.

Like all my figs from pastiliere dropped like hail... all of them, all 15 or so figs i put up.

 Not bad to me means it's a keeper , not good to me goes in the garbage  I saw other people writing about this fig  and they weren't too thrilled with it  I guess it depends on what you are comparing it too, I think it's an ok fig should only get better with age

I got mine from Almost Eden I might have a couple of cuttings available

Very interesting Dave, it's an environment thing. They do look nice.
