So there is someone selling rare figs and they have these on their list:
I only have room for 1 more unfortunately. As long as its sweet and a prolific bearer i do not mind :) Does the Calimyrna need fig wasp pollination? (There are no fig wasps where i am) Kind regards F.C |

Yes, the Calimyrna needs pollination. My Calimyrna tree has been one of my slowest growers. I'm not familiar with the other two figs on your list. Perhaps you would be better off with the LSU Gold on your wish list and one of the Adriatics if you like a sweet berry flavor. |

Yeah i figured that the calimyrna needs pollination unfortunately. I am still waiting for the LSU Gold to become available from a different seller (they sell them when they reach a certain height/age) |

Update: I have pre-purchased the LSU Gold that i have been wanting to get! Turns out today they added a pre-purchase function on their site which is good because i always miss out as many people beat me to it. Looks like LSU Gold it is and thus completes my fig collection......for now |
