Cavaliere
One of our favorites!!!

-
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.
-
Valoze
Our most productive and reliable fig variety.
-
Azores Dark (Sao Miguel Roxo)
Still considered one of the best varieties of the Mt Etna Types.
-
Olga (Lorusso)
The Olga fig variety is an excellent blend of very sweet grape🍇, strawberry🍓, and banana🍌.

Using Rock Dusts for Healthier Fig Trees & Other Plants
This worked well for establishing very dead soil. Now that my trees and other plants are established, it seems unnecessary.
