While searching the Internet I stumbled across this Fig Blog with the most beautiful pictures of Montserrat Pons figs over a hundred and a nice video to boot if you click on captions and then click on settings you could change the captions to english or whatever Enjoy!

Alan Mercieca you are not correct, Spain has caprifigs and Blastophaga wasps, if you check in fb on either Pons' timeline or Juan Biblioni's timeline, you will see pictures of Caprifig mamme crop with wasps in Spain. Besides, why would Portugal have them and Spain not?

Your welcome everybody I've been looking at all the pictures for the last week determining which one looked the most interesting I think I am leaning towards "Maillada"

Dave,

I almost republished the information about Montserrat Pons pictures. I have done a search but this thread was "buried" among 2 pages of others that mentioned Pons and simply passes unnoticed at first.

Could i make a suggestion (if that is still possible) to change the tread name to something like "Montserrat Pons - 100 varieties photos" or similar, so that us newbies can find it more easily?

I really like the form of those trees.  Nice under canopy picking height.

I was fortunate enough to obtain a few cuttings from a handful of Pons varieties, so i searched the web trying to find additional photos of those varieties and i also found this blog and its wonderful photos. Its always nice to see what our small trees can produce.
I missed this thread when i search the forum the first time, so it think others might miss it too without a rename.
