Thread: Fruit, Nut, and Vine Grafting, Tree Propagation, Tree Care

That's cool. I was saving a volunteer hog persimmon next to my shop to graft over to the Japanese Persimmon in the yard but a Buck rubbed it and killed it. I will take a picture of it to show the damage. I'm letting some others grow now, not putting all my eggs in one basket again. I have a Fuyu, planted it here 33 years ago. Very slow growing at least here.

We finally ate the Miss Hall fig today. It was a sweet, tender, honey fig taste. I took a picture for the fig fans so they can see what color it is inside.

Yum, looks good. Thanks for pic and description

This is a Green Ishia Fig. Very green in color. These figs are off young trees so the tastes will change as the trees mature but this fig is big, has good fig flavor, and the skin is super tender compared to others fresh off the tree here.



Another Condria fig. The tree this fig came from in in a pot with the watering system supplying water. I think from the lack of fig taste it is getting too much water at this time. The fig above tastes way better. So far the Smith fig has tasted the best out of the figs here.

Good looking figs. I'm still waiting on a fig to ripen, any fig....I'm not picky at this point...lol.

When they start ripening they don't stop. I am learning that having a assortment of varieties may not have been my best plan. I still have a few from Gulf Coast Exotics that haven't made a fig yet. Conandria is not a fig I will be propagating if the taste stays consistent. It is getting moved to a drier location to see if too much water is the problem right after I clean fish.

These Chicago Hardy figs are not large like the others but the tase makes up for the lack of size. Real good fig flavor, sweet too. No Breba crops though, one crop a year.



Well colored with a Raspberry colored flesh.

Those look good. Chicago Hardy is one of the varieties I purchased this year. I've heard they tasted good and were good producers. Glad you confirmed this. Thanks for sharing.
