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.

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.
After growing Pellegrino for a few years, we can tell no difference between it and Longue d’Aout, so we have culled Pellegrino.
A unique honey fig, with dried pineapple🍍 & light banana🍌 flavor when fully ripe.
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🥭!
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.
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.
