Bluemalibu @ OurFigs: This has been a robust grower for me; a first-year tree that is 5’x4′, and extremely prolific. The fig’s flavor is really intriguing, it’s like a honey/apricot/mango blend. Soft, (almost fragile) skin. Very nice… and I am one that usually isn’t a big fan of honey/sugar figs.

Robert Harper @ OurFigs: Discovered in the Niagara area. We just stated testing it here this year, 2012. So, we have no cold hardy data yet. But, Niagara is a zone 6b, and the soil in the Niagara area is not noted for being dry. It has been reported that it is a very good tasting fig, by collectors who have tasted many different figs.

*Please watch our instructional videos on the "Fig Care Series" page before attempting to root.*
