Cuttings from Tony’s Huge White Adriatic Tree

Would like to take a moment to thank  Mr. Tony for allowing us to circulate his cuttings of this wonderful 120 year old tree at 90 years old he’s still an avid fig lover . He has been one for  all his life and  was born only 400 feet from where he currently resides . When he reached adulthood he purchased the property Across the road because of the Beautiful fig trees that were there which he has made his home.

thank you Tony for your generosity

A century ago, the premier dried fig in California, now sadly forgotten in the rush for foreign novelties. White Adriatic, is too an introduction from abroad - for centuries, grown in the neighborhood of Rome as a dual purpose fig, for fresh market and for drying, as 'Verdone.' It is our first recommendation as a dessert fig in a climate too cool for many other varieties of figs. The tree is dense and vigorous. Very productive of pale green fruits with heavy waxen bloom; tending to turbinate form. Flesh color of strawberry jam, and about as sweet and luscious. It bears no breba crop, but has a long ripening season of two months.

The purpose of selling these current so cheap is to allow people to trial new methods of propagating and/or grafting without being worried about killing them.

In that regards we will bulk ship Mondays and Tuesdays 7 to 10 Business days after the purchase.

we will also not do combine shipping unless purchased with another Variety ( Carr doesn’t qualify)

All cuttings are 6 inches or longer, with 3 or more nodes.  All cuttings will be freshly sealed at time of shipping.
