Rob's Genovese Nero vs I-258 Figs

[@starrfloyd8628]

keep putting these awesome videos on...i enjoy seeing all your figs.

[@furtherbeyond]

I just got both cuttings for I-258 and Genovese Nero AF. I had no idea they could be the same fig. Time will tell... :)

[@ofon2000]

keep in mind Rob's Genovese Nero and Genovese Nero are different figs

[@jesusflores7323]

I know this is 5 years late but for anyone else stumbling in on this video, rob's GN is now believed to be closer to a CA brown turkey than to the GN AF or I-258

[@ofon2000]

Is Rob's GN productive for you or is it pretty stingy in overall? I understand they're huge fruits, but i mean overall yield in weight is what I'm getting at

[@PAFigs]

It is very productive!

Am I confused or did he not pick a I 258?...

[@FelipeRubio85]

Yes he did but he kept calling it Genovese Nero AF, he forgot he picked a I 258.

Hi Rob- turned 70a couple of months ago - don't know if I have time to start from cuttings- you have anything a little bigger to give me a head start. Kirk Economos

[@PAFigs]

Gentleman Private not sure if this was meant for me, but I have a few airlayers available... email me at [e-mail] after Christmas and I can tell you what I have.

[@dlugi2449]

Hi do you have any i-258 figs or cuttings for sale?

[@PAFigs]

No sorry, my trees had a lot of die back last winter.

[@maddog8148]

Why is it called I 258?

[@PAFigs]

If I remember correctly, I258 was one of several varieties that were found in Italy. They were all numbered for identification and research.

[@maddog8148]

Thank you. Where can I get one?

PAfig, what's your eBay handle? please.
