Asian Figs

Posted by rafed 6 (My Page) on

I have decided I would like to add some Asian figs to my list.
I have the Wuhan and thanks to a well known member for that one.

I would like to add at least three more from the region; China, Japan, Asia etc, etc.

Any suggestion? If you have any plants or cuttings to sell let me know.

I'm glad you got your WUHAN. I'm looking for that one too! I don't have any suggestions for you on the others. Tim

Rafed,

PASTILIERE is supposedly a Japanese variety. Purple/black fig with light red pulp, small eye, main crop ripens after Celeste (early August in zone 9), reportedly does well in greenhouses and pot culture. I got a small one going from UCD. However, no cuttings available this year.

Dan,

I'm glad you mentioned Pastiliere.
Forgot I have one cutting from a good and well known member and it seemed ( at the time I was home )to be doing fine.
