    Thanks for finding my fig tree. The replacement you sent is doing fantastic and UPS never responded to my lost package claim.
    Once again thank you for sending the replacement when I told you that my tree never arrived.

    This has been one of the best fig production I have had but the figs are no where near as dark as they usually are and they are much larger. The taste is still great.

      Haha! This rain we've been getting every afternoon is spoiling all my figs before they can ripen -- especially the honey and sugar figs. The berry figs seem to be a little more tolerant of large influxes of water.

    so i noticed my figs not as dark this year, some of my celeste were kinda green and fully rip, so odd. maybe it was the drought we got while they were developing in april, i didnt get rain for a month

    What fig tree would you recommend of the berry varieties for growing in a pot with 100 day summer? would any berry variety be good to try or should I avoid certain ones? Hello from Canada with a very limited selection. I look forward to tasting a fig that is not in a cookie hahaha.

    • @LazyDogFarm
      @LazyDogFarm  Місяць тому +1

      Some berry varieties take too long to ripen for your short season. LSU Tiger is an early-maturing fig, but it's more sugar-berry as opposed to having the real tart berry flavors. But a great fig nonetheless. Salem Dark is probably the earliest true berry fig I have in my orchard. It's been known to do well in the New England area, so you might have a good chance with it too.

    My figs, firsts year in the ground but 4 years old. Are super tiny, flavorful but so small. Hopefully they will get bigger. LSU purple and Martinica Ramada.
    I need a big fig.
    SE Texas. Which one would you recommend? Will you have it for sale?
    I want sweet for jam.
    Blessings!

      Hard to wrong with LSU Gold if you want to make a bunch of jam. We'll have more of those hopefully in September.
