Fantastic butterscotch flavor!
Fantastic butterscotch flavor!
After the first fig tasting, I had high hopes for the Jebba fig variety, but didn’t perform in our orchard. Not sure why, but I decided I had too many other good figs to take up my space and time.
We have found Albacor Comuna to be a much less productive than many of our other varieties. It’s actually a very good fig, but I hope I don’t regret having to let this one go.
Since I received a number of Sunrise cuttings from Brian, I had many Sunrise trees. I sold some. Others I gave away. Not paying attention, I accidentally gave away my last one. Bummer. Oh well, this one seems only semi-common, as it does not have the quality of caprified specimens, so we will not be re-acquiring this variety.
A terrific all-round, great tasting fig variety.
A truly premium fig variety.
I’m still unsure that this variety is true to type. Sometimes the figs look like others’ pix, sometimes not. But I’m hanging onto it for now.
Sadly, our young potted Savanac Noire was killed by the 2022 Arctic Blast.
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 is a caprifig variety that never produced for us, and we decided no to pursue experiments with caprification, so we culled it.
