Fig identity

    2 responses

Hello fellow gardeners,
i volunteer at the local high school and have come across a neglected fig.
I have struck cuttings which are healthy.
the fruit from the tree is poor quality (perhaps from neglect) but I am not certain of the species.
I will attach photos of the fruit and the cuttings for anybody that may care to assist.

Hi Graham, looking at the fruit my guess would be Brown Turkey, but the shape of the leaves are different. Could it be a local selection? Your cuttings look wonderful.

Thanks Pauline,
I tasted the fruit and it was tasteless and dry.
I have some fruit already appearing on the cuttings so if they ripen I will contact you .
BTW is the rusty appearance on the leaves natural or hot weather?
