Hello Everyone,this a fig plant that has been growing unprotected for the last 8 years in northeast Ohio,can anyone help ID it? Only clues about it are the fruit is dark red to black,with red to deep red insides.It maybe called Catalina by Italians from the Campobasso area of Italy were it came from. Thank you, Mario |

Funny I thought the same thing. I have VB but no fruit yet. Slow grower for me at this point. The leaves are very similar but my tree had a bad case of FMV. |

Only reason I could imagine would be that whitish cast to the leaves... |

Gender agreement: Shouldn't it be Vesuviana Bianca? |
