I have a bit more information on the origin of this fig since I posted about it earlier this summer. |

My Stella Cordi has one fig on it. It looks just like your pictures. |

My stella has the typical finger type leaves could this be Dalamatie that would be my guess |

Any chance you can get your hand on some cuttings? If so please pm me. It looks like a keeper for sure but I still think it is Dalmatie and could be relatively FMV free Dalmatie at that. |

Looks like my Stella with the cluster towards the top and the shape of the leaves and figs, yet that fig is bigger than the first Stella I've picked, and I doubt the others will get that large. It would be interesting to know the weight of those. Mike in Hanover, VA |

Thanks for all the input. It looks like I'll have a couple more ripening in a day or so. I'll check the weight. This is a big, sweet, tasty fig for sure. |

Scot, nice new pictures. The largest Stella on my plant so far has been 88 grams, and they have not been as red inside. This could be because they tend to split with rain or morning dew, and aren't as ripe. The exterior on mine is more yellow though with sugar spots, where as your figs are more green. Maybe you get more sun, or maybe it's a different fig, though in most ways, it does look like Stella. Mike in Hanover, VA |

That is an amazing fig. I don't know if the standard fig photo protocol (with the quarter) does this justice. It looks kinda big in those pictures. But when you show it in the palm of your hand .... MAMMA MIA! |

Wow now that, is a great looking green fig! How old is the tree you currently have? Let me know if you would be up for trading/sending any cuttings! |

I got this tree as a cutting in 2009. No sign of FMV. |
