Hi vito12831, Nice figs. Do you have a pic of the tree and leaves ? Is she really weeping ? This morning, I harvested a beast of 110grams -my biggest this year; that was already a beast. But 120 grams, that's a big baby ! __________________ ------------------------ Climate from -25°C to + 35°C Only cold hardy figtrees can make it here

@ Pino. I'll post a picture of the leaves later. @ Igor. Aldo's-Sal's Corleone -Black weeping are similar but I haven't gotten brebas this big from them yet. @jdsfrance. I'll take a picture of the tree later, I don't see any weeping yet(maybe if it was loaded with brebas it would weep) Vito

Vito, congrats! Beautiful fig. The more they ripen, the better they get! Thank you for sharing the pics. Here is a nice thread that compares the Weeping fig with others (along with my Aldo's) to demonstrate a few synonyms that are out there describing the same variety of fig. There are others such as Acciano and Chico Malibu for example, which I believe should be included as well. http://figs4funforum.websitetoolbox.com/post/weeping-fig-aldo-corleone-5527206?highlight=weeping&pid=1270722567#post1270722567

Here are photos of the leaves of Sal's Corleone and Black Weeping. Leon, I think you're right, the leaves look the same. Rafael, I'm glad the RDB is growing well for you. Attached Images 20150721_115229~2.jpg (278.06 KB, 13 views) 20150721_115402~2.jpg (332.61 KB, 13 views)
