Fig - Violette De Bordeaux

Very happy this is actually VDB as far as I can tell (being a mission type, figs on VDB are never fully green when growing or ripening). Thank you. Hard to find fertilizer with equal amounts of NPK so I buy them individually and apply monthly up on signs of greenery starting to grow after winter to a month before going dormant. With this and repotting VDB Fig plant, after it lost it's fruit it initially came with, it has now more fruit on it.
