This fig was introduced by Paully22. I got it through a local trade. This fig is a nice size very sweet and tasty. Looks similar to the Sicilian figs. A little bigger and a few days earlier ripening than Sal's Corleone. Enjoy! Comments welcome.

Hi Joe. That's a great looking fig. I have a six inch plant and can't wait to taste it. Enjoy. Vito

Thanks Tony and Vito! @Elin - The fig came to me from another F4F member but I don't know its history. It is definitely NOT a mt. etna type. To me the leaves and the ripening figs look similar to the Sicilian line of figs (Enrico, Sal's Corleone, Sicilian Black...). __________________ Pino, zone 6, Niagara, JCJ Acres Wish; Peace on earth and more figs Italian 258, Galicia Negra, Luv, trade suggestions welcome.

Its always nice when a fig drips fig honey, drooping and soft a sure sign that it is fully ripe! It was a nice taste fig. To me seems same flavour group as Sicilian Reds , Sal's Corleone... __________________ Pino, zone 6, Niagara, JCJ Acres Wish; Peace on earth and more figs Italian 258, Galicia Negra, Luv, trade suggestions welcome.
