Dave, I think the fig for sale on eBay looks like Longe d aout, this fig doesn't have a long neck but could be a different strain. Do you have vashon Violette fig? Rcantor, Thanks , the taste was like melon, my wife said it tasted like sweet cucumber lol. The biggest one was 229.67 grams , so decent meal. I would say could eat with cheese and biscuits . |

Looks like a great fig! How cold hardy is it? I am in zone 5 and I am looking for some fig varieties that produce well (and are tasty) in colder climates. |
