Longue d'Aout was my best tasting fig last year after it rained for 3 straight months.

Hi Charles, Aren't Longue d' Aout and Melanzana two different types? I thought Melanzana was an Italian purple fig and Longue d' Aout was a French fig and is possibly also Nordland. New here and I am not positive so I wanted to ask. Thanks, Mike

I formed my conclusions from members who have done the research. For example, here is one word for word quote of a F4F entry that others on the forum have agreed with:Let me clarify the confusion. Melanzana Merd...... is the same as Longue D'Aout. I received my MM from Adriano years back and positively identified this fig as LdA. As a result of this, he changed the name of the cultivar on his website. The way I identified this fig was because MM was growing next to a Longue D'Aout tree I received from a good friend in Europe. To my astonishment, both trees, with respect to figs, leaves, growth habits, taste, etc. are exactly alike! Charles

Thanks Bill and everyone! It's been fun!! Seeing all the great feedback from my fellow fig fanatics has inspired me to share cuttings again next year!! Harvest season is winding down. So, I just decided to offer a cost-savings incentive to newbies who what to practice raising figlets to adulthood with minimum of pain on the pocketbook. Also, if any die out, beginners won't lose much or feel too bad. Keep on figging!! Thanks again, ficus community!

I agree with bill, Charles cuttings are very good, it is treated, and open end sealed with low temperature wax, low price for beginners, highly recommanded.
