Nexoe fig variety from Danemark
I got my hands on this variety about two months ago and I wanted to share the information with everyone. Some might have noticed it on my website but I wanted to add a few more details here.
This variety is originally from the island of Bornholm in the Baltic sea in Denmark. The legend has it that this fig had reached the island during the Hanseatic League and it underwent a breeding selection in the course of the centuries. The Nexoe is also known as Nexö and the name can trace its origins to the small town of Nexø
This cultivar is well adapted to the climatic conditions of the Baltic sea. The legend has it that this fig had reached the island during the Hanseatic League and underwent a breed selection in the course of the centuries.
This fig has the following properties:
 Floral figs starting mid of July (this year: 20th of July)
 Autumn figs starting at the end of October (only be ripen in 2003 and 2006)
 Colour of the figs: golden yellow -> violet
 Flavour: sweet, fruity when overripe and on very hot days ultra-sweet
 grows shrubby
 great cold hardiness after the second planting year, bears frost till -20°C (-4°F), only in 95/96 at -22°C
