That's a tasty looking fig but the leaves are not reminiscent of Vasilika, which are thinner and more finger like. Could be a Ischia or Verte fig variety __________________ Renton, WA My Seattle Garden Blog \| Fig Addiction WISH LIST: Genovese Nero Rafeds \| UCR 187-25 \| Black Tuscan \| Black Triana \| Jack Lilly \| Barbillone \| St Rita \| Tauro \| Jin Ao Fen \| Lampeira Preto \| Any fig over 100grams =)

Well looking at the interior color,it is not as dark red as Vasilika Sika,but matches the interior color of Adriatic JH. The leaves have a different shape compared to VS and more like Adriatic JH This is my opinion when i look at the 2 tree,that I am going to show pixies down here: First pix is Adriatic jh Attached Images DSCN1287.JPG (232.43 KB, 18 views) Vasilika_Sika_Tree.JPG (235.65 KB, 19 views)

Hi Herman was thinking vs because of the Greek neighborhood that it came from... Thanks for your reply. __________________ john Zone 7a
