I think this is my favourite fig variety of my collection so far

A quick tour of some of my greenhouse figs, and a taste of what I think is probably my favourite so far.

Your voice and mic quality are spectacular, sir!

[@irishfruitandberries9059]

Looks spectacular. I wasn't going to bother with this variety but you've changed my mind!

[@hopeitgrows2892]

Haha, thats awesome, would be cool to see how it fares in Ireland! Could maybe trade a few cuttings or something 🌿

[@TheMuledoc]

What is the variety?

[@hopeitgrows2892]

Verdino del nord 😊🌿

[@barrycartwright8400]

i all so need to repot some of my smaller figs plant up aswell 😁 i all kind of knocked off my only ponte tresa by accident it needed to afew more days to ripen but still ate it

[@hopeitgrows2892]

Oh no, well hopefully it still tasted good! Good luck with the uppotting

[@Algeriafigs]

Do you sell cuttings or air layer?

[@Gimik817]

Hi! where did you get the Verdino del Nord variety in the UK? thanks

[@hopeitgrows2892]

Hey, I got it from someone called Sebastian vulco, from mainland Europe (before brexit). I think it originally came from Vladamir rocco. Best to check the European fig Facebook group for people selling cuttings in Winter.

[@Gimik817]

@@hopeitgrows2892 thanks for letting me know! Seems to me very difficult to import specific variety of fruit trees from the EU since Brexit...

[@hopeitgrows2892]

Yeah definitely. If you are on UK Fig growers FB group, people may have cuttings on there in winter too.

[@davecphotographyuk]

Where did you get this from? i can't find anyone selling it.

[@hopeitgrows2892]

It was from a cutting from someone on a Facebook group for people who are into figs, in the UK.

[@davecphotographyuk]

Ah, guess i won't be getting that variety then @@hopeitgrows2892

[@hopeitgrows2892]

The group is called UK fig growers. In the autumn and winter, people generally sell and exchange cuttings 🙌

[@jamesfrederick.]

Is this verdino del nord or the real figoin

[@hopeitgrows2892]

Sold as verdino del nord by someone in Europe. 😊

[@nonnapapera3044]

​@@hopeitgrows2892 "verdino del nord" is an italian name (it means "the little green from the north" 😂) so maybe you can easily find that name on italian sites.
