The Grosse is a small green fig with an incredibly sweet strawberry interior. There was a fig contest awhile back. This fig won. A good source for information can be obtained from Andy Marianni at Andy's Orchard in Morgan Hill, CA. There is a website. When I moved from Morgan Hill to Richmond, MA in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts, I took five with me and they are now growing in containers. It is a challenge to grow figs in this area, but I'm trying. They go in the basement under grow lights in the winter and then out in May after the frost. They yield fruit but it's a challenge for them to ripen in the short growing season here, but the yield gets better and better each year. The plan is to put in a green house, which I hope will help. You can usually get Andy's figs in September at his place. Currently there is an abundance of a huge variety of stone fruit. Worth checking it out without a doubt. Tony Vitto.
