This is my first time tasting De La Senyora. I won't do a rating because it ripened in cool weather and the roots have been soaked from all of the non-stop rain. Despite those conditions, this fig was still delicious with a refreshing berry flavor. I can tell it will be a winner and I look forward to tasting more of these in the future. __________________ Frank zone 7a - VA

It looks very good, Frank, in spite of your current weather. Congrats! __________________ Gary in CA 9A Seeking: Bebera Branca*, Colonel Littman's Cross

That looks fantastic, Frank. Most of my figs' flavors got washed away with all that rain. If it had that kind of flavor under those conditions, I can only imagine what it will be like for you under warm, dry conditions. __________________ SE Pa, zone 6b https://www.facebook.com/offthebeatenpathnurseries

Thanks guys. Bill, I missed out on a lot of spoiled/watery figs over the past 2 weeks. I was able to pick one of the last Longue d'Aout figs yesterday, but had to split it 4 ways with the wife and kids. ;) __________________ Frank zone 7a - VA

Looks nice Frank! I have a cutting rooting of "della signora" will be interesting to see if it is the same fig. There seems to at least 3 figs with very similar names (della signura (Italian dialect), della signora (proper Italian), De la senyora (Spanish?)). There otta be a law..lol __________________ Pino, zone 6, Niagara, JCJ Acres Wish; Peace on earth and more figs Italian 258, Galicia Negra, Luv, trade suggestions welcome.

Seem like the de la signora(italian) is a different with the de la senyora(spanish) fig. As the de la signora look a bit reddish and the de la senyora is a greenish fig
