I'm really impressed with this fig. It was started from a cutting I got from Just Figs, early Fall of 2014. Started (surviving a mold attack) and overwintered indoors under light. Survived fungus gnats and spider mites. |

Looks good! Congrats on the successful fig tree propagation (sounds like it was a long road), but I bet the fig tasted better for all that hard work. |

Thanks for the comments. Yes Becky, pretty much all my trees have survived a high degree of newbness over the last fifteen months. Every fig has been special this year, being my first year to have multiple figs but this one was somewhat above the rest far as flavor and it really surprised me. |

Looks great, the sals was my best producer this year and gave some amazing tasting figs. |

Nice. My 2nd year HC and MvsB fruited this year, but not my Sal's (due to neglect on my part). May just be age, but the HCs were jammy and a bit tart, whereas the MvsB was jammy but had a second flavor: creamy? My thought was "this tastes like strawberries and creamcheese on a bagel." Hoping I get the Sal's up-potted for next year so I can compare. I'm still wondering if all of these similar varieties will be the same or different when they mature. Thanks for posting. |
