Fig tasting Ponte Tresa, Grosse Monstrueuse JFE Black Madeira 2018

[@davehendricks4824]

4 years later, and I just watched your video, stopped in the middle of it and ordered 2 ponte tresa cuttings! That fig looked phenomenal!

My 3rd year Ponte Tresa has gotten better with age. Need more Ben and Ram videos for sure Thanks guys!

[@RossRaddi]

More videos with Ram! Dude knows his stuff. Saijo IS the very best one.

I think I'll need to add on in ground

Hey Ben, I really like your videos. Thanks for reviewing Ponte Tresa. I'm the guy that "discovered" this gem a few years ago, so I'm glad there are fig growers across the country having some success with it. Ironically, here in Tallahassee, I've had problem after problem with PT, along with most other varieties, due to the humid weather and tons of pests. Glad that this fig is appreciated. I am certain that if you had tasted this fig from the original tree in Switzerland, you would have given it an 11 out of 10 rating. It was a religious experience. LOL

fmen2007 dude I need cuttings

Great video. I’ve never had a persimmon but you’re making me curious. JFE claims to have the UCD version of Black Madeira now. I passed due to the reputation of poor growth due to FMV in the UCD version and got KK cuttings instead, but it has been almost 3 weeks and they haven’t rooted yet. Wish me luck 😮

Very impressive to be still getting great tasting figs so late in the season.

Thanks for the video. This may be sacrilegious but I prefer my persimmons (5 varieties) over my figs (11 varieties).

You are killing me! Wow, that looks so delicious. Thank you guys for sharing.

[@dianahawkins9168]

Would love to see Ram’s trees.

How do your figs get such interesting colors wow

The music that I am asking about stars at 3:10 just when you start cutting fig's. I would live to know who is it from.

[@Moonlight76876]

I love the music Ben ! What is it ? Of course Love all your videos.

[@michellechew724]
