Hi, My two cents on Longue d'aout ! Do you have a better pic of the leaf ? A completely ripe fig ? __________________ ------------------------ Climate from -25°C to + 35°C Only cold hardy figtrees can make it here

Very nice looking fig tree. I hope that it is Longue d'aout ! I have Longue d'aout from cutting, it grows very fast here even with cool climate here. It doesn't have that pretty long finger leaves yet. __________________ - BC, Canada, PNW Zone 8 with windy ( Zone7 - branches damage at winter) - Wish list - Granthams Royal, RdB, any heavy breba varieties or early one crop varieties.

ricky, It doesn't? My very small Longue d' Aout has all his leaves like that. Strange...

Oh, I think that I have a wrong label Longue d' Aout cutting, very disappointed . __________________ - BC, Canada, PNW Zone 8 with windy ( Zone7 - branches damage at winter) - Wish list - Granthams Royal, RdB, any heavy breba varieties or early one crop varieties.

I think there is a chance that you may have a wrong labeled cutting or it may be that in some conditions the small plant doesn't show this pattern until later. Anyway, I went looking for a earlier photo of my young Longue d'Aout and the 5 finger leaves pattern was there from the start (right side plant on next photo) __________________ Jaime - Zone 9b - near Caldas da Rainha - Portugal Wish List: São Luís, Valamandil, Sofeno Tradicional, Cótio, Cavaleiro, Belmandil, Coll de Dame de Ciutat, Strawberry Verte, Marabout, Sihagi.

I couldn't get much closer because of the fence and hedge. I believe the ripe figs were eaten by the owner. Ha. ha.
