Vasile, those are delicious looking figs. Happy to know a handful of fruits can be harvested here and there, it makes the effort worthwhile. Let's hope the temperatures stay high enough, the forecast is calling for nighttime temps in the 40's by the end of next week. |

That leaf sure looks like Unk Lake Spur. I've thought ever since they were rooted cuttings with new leaves my VS looks most like ULS and now they are bigger it's like looking at the same plant. |

Hi Herman2, |

Thanks for reporting on this. My V.S. (non-Dalmatie type which derives from the one you have) is in its 1st year so hopefully I will get fruit next year. I will probably keep it in a container for now but it is good to know that it can come back from being frozen to the ground to produce fruit. How would you describe the flavor compared to other green figs with red pulp such as Adriatic JH, Battaglia Green, Ischia Green etc? |

My VS I got from you has been a slow grower, I'm hoping it has a growth spurt this upcoming season. I did get to taste one fig from it and it was excellent. I plan on getting the dalmatie type soon because they look outstanding as well. |
