The Dominick fig variety is an excellent Mt Etna, but it was just way too far from the house to keep up with, so it’s been culled.

We had just re-located our LSU O’Rourke late in the 2022 season, which made it susceptible to being killed by the 2022 Arctic Blast. Even though it’s an official LSU variety, we just don’t feel the need to replace it, as we have so many other early and much more flavorful varieties.
It was difficult to let go of an LSU variety, but in spite of its reliable production, Improved Celeste just doesn’t have a flavor that impresses and it doesn’t like the rain, so we culled it.
Our favorite fig variety of the English Brown Turkey fig family, with flavors ranging from peach🍑 to mango🥭!
A reliable Adriatic fig family variety.
Since we had so many varieties from the Adriatic fig family, and our JH Adriatic was in a poor location, we had it slated for the chopping block. HOWEVER, it became LOADED with figs in 2025, and I couldn’t bring my self to get rid of it.
It was not easy to let go of the Alma fig variety, but I became concerned that it was right up against my home foundation.
Emerald Strawberry is one of the best of the Atreano family of fig varieties, but I prefer the more intense flavor of the Adriatic figs, so we culled it.
The Archipel fig variety just seems lackluster to our tastes, so we culled it.
The White Triana fig is an excellent variety from the Atreano fig family, but it hasn’t been very productive and was in a shady location, so we culled it.
