LV5
We have culled LV5 after trialing it for four full seasons, as it is an unremarkable variety without caprification.

Albo
Though Albo is a very good honey fig from the Pomona fig collection, we are not big into honey figs and this one just didn’t have a good level of production. In spite of its flat bottom, it does seem to handle the rain well.
-
Colonel Littman’s Black Cross
An exceptional fig variety.
-
Col de Dame Noir
A favorite of the CdD fig family varieties.
-
Smith
We may consider this our #1 fig variety, except for one small weakness…
-
Izbat an Naj
A unique honey fig, with dried pineapple🍍 & light banana🍌 flavor when fully ripe.
-
Dominick
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.
-
LSU O’Rourke
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.
-
LSU Improved Celeste (ICON)
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.
-
Nexoe
Our favorite fig variety of the English Brown Turkey fig family, with flavors ranging from peach🍑 to mango🥭!
