    We had several large fig trees when I was young. I loved eating them. We had four pear trees, about 8 plum, and about a dozen peach and apricot trees too, and we always grew a very large amount of cantaloupes, red,. and yellow watermelons and all sorts of other foods. We even grew our own peanuts, corn, potatoes, peas, beans, squash, tomatoes, eggplant, turnips, rutabagas, cucumbers, broccoli, cabbage...you name it. I`m amazed that I moved to this rural Louisiana lot and there are NO FRUIT TREES here or wild walking onions! There will be soon!

    Back home in Nablus, Palestine we used to have very large Fig tree. This tree was taller than three story building where I used to live, it was a few feet taller than the three story. The width of this tree approximately 25 to thirty feet.
    During summer time, I used to climb this lovely tree and pick up thirty to forty figs almost every day. The fig used to be very large I would say four to five figs almost a pound.
    I loved this tree because it was part of my childhood, I was almost eight or nine years when I started to climb this tree.
    The sad thing about it is the that my brother cut it because he was living on the first floor of our building and he want to expand his living space and the only place was is to cut this tree and add a living space.
    I was really saddened when I heard he cut this fig tree, I loved this tree, it is in the Holley place of Palestine.
    Sorry to make you sad.

    I prefer the varieties that have a small or closed eye. Currently I have lsu purple, BT, Celeste, Chicago Hardy. Beers black, Violet de Bordeaux. Just started my first propagating of Smith, and an unknown. Humidity and high temperature here in Florida are the battle along with root knot nematodes.

      These are the best figs for the zones without the fig wasp. So unless you live in the Mediterranean or in other fig wasp zones, these figs will be the best for you. Also they do well in colder growing zones like zone 7 and below. If you are in a cold zone and have some suggestions let me know. Cheers!!

    I have a fig which is about 4yrs old and is more like a bush i.e. it is about 3m high but 4m in spread , it gave a breba crop with10 brown figs,each about 250gram in weight, however although juicy they have not much flavour. Living in the South of Britain I wait to see if the massive main crop will ripen. I have no idea of it's variety , my other note is that the leaves are not deeply "branche into the typiacl 5 fingers ?

    Do you sell cuttings? Do you think these will do well in zone 8a in Louisiana? I`m partially disabled and food has become too expensive to buy. I stopped going to stores. I`m planning to do my very best to get a garden planted and fruit trees started on my lot. But I`ve been buying parts to finish my emergency solar power system so I can have at least some air conditioning after hurricanes and have electricity for cooking and refrigeration when the power fails. Plus it can power my electric tiller and mower if I ever lose my small check. Can`t afford to put gas in a generator for two weeks or even two days and I have no transportation anyway. I did buy a small generator that can recharge my freezer batteries with one gallon of gas and provide 50 hours of electricity for that and 5 hours of air conditioning at the same time or put some charge into my main large battery if it gets too low to avoid damaging it.
