Savanac Noire (Thierry)
Sadly, our young potted Savanac Noire was killed by the 2022 Arctic Blast.

Purpura Verde
Though Purpura Verde is a unique fig variety, it is not very productive and the flavor just doesn’t stand up against some of our other fig varieties, so we have culled it.
-
Antelope Bridge Caprifig
Antelope Bridge is a caprifig variety that never produced for us, and we decided no to pursue experiments with caprification, so we culled it.
-
Aldo’s Red
We have culled Aldo’s Red, as we could tell no difference between it and Brooklyn Dark.
-
Ciccio Nero (Pino)
We have culled Ciccio Nero, as it like many of our other Mt Etna varieties.
-
Easton Vasilika
Easton Vasilika is a very good fig variety. However, we have many Adriatics and the tree was in the way of another project, so it’s gone.
-
Kesariani
Though the Kesariani fig variety is very cold hardy and productive, it was in a poor location and I have nicer berry figs than another Mt Etna.
-
Pellegrino
After growing Pellegrino for a few years, we can tell no difference between it and Longue d’Aout, so we have culled Pellegrino.
-
Albacor de Molla Blanca
Albacor de Molla Blanca is just not an impressive fig variety (just another Black Mission, low productivity), so we have culled it.
-
LV5
We have culled LV5 after trialing it for four full seasons, as it is an unremarkable variety without caprification.
