Tasting the Monster Fig - Fiorone Di Ruvo Fig Breba 2018

[@RossRaddi]

Interesting fig, Ben. Kind of reminds me of citrus with those "pop rocks" :D Keep us updated when this thing gets perfect.

[@michelemastandrea6116]

That you call Fiorone di Ruvo is really Domenico Tauro, originated in Terlizzi in XVIII century

[@unconventionalme8048]

do you ever try and pollinate your figs? I watch this and can't help but to think that would be great ty and cross it with a desert king, or another bigger fig with better tastes and see what types of flavors you could get from the seedlings...?

[@panpeter2969]

or yellow long neck

[@rudyvargas9518]

How did this fig come to be ...is it science at work or a natural crossing of natures best..is it in the commercial arena yet..

[@shabirmahr9496]

Great. What is the name of this fig? What is the age of this fig plant?

[@RiptideRigo]

Wow, that's huge! I wonder how it would do here in the south...

[@christyosborne9301]

There used to be one of those in my neighbor’s backyard. It gee very large and was covered with fist sized fruits every summer! I can’t find any fiorone di ruvo fig trees for sale anywhere around here. (Vernon Parish-Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana)

[@WeaverOfNightmares]

@@christyosborne9301 can u ask them for a seed plz 🥺👉👈

[@TheShamwari]

I have a fig tree producing breba figs (10} this year which look the same as yours, weight 250 gram, also leaves same as yours; however I left the brebas untill they were so soft it was hard not to squash them on plucking off the stem. They were purple inside and out but just about tasteless! Live in South East of UK, max summer temp 20C or 65F, there rests green partly grown main crop of many more figs as it is nowstart of August one will have to "wait and see!"

[@jahstafari4606]

250? ....breba ....i just foung biggest i ever seen on the street week ago 210 grams .....must be that breba variety

[@jahstafari4606]

Won't burying the graft point cause rot issues for the tree?

[@BenBSeattle]

It's a possibility, but worth a try. Now you have me worried. maybe I'll airlayer first to make a backup. =)

[@loa81]

I’m salivating! Thanks!

[@aoluae]

hope you are doing well, we missed your videos

[@bigdohry647]

Amazing fig

[@nhatvlogle2998]

How much 1 fig tree

[@splash5974]

Definetly not ready to pick! My dads old farm in Southern Italy has a few Fiorone fig trees, and you dont pick them untill you start to see little cracks in the skin. They get really sweet when ripe, and alot more juicy. But it could be because you have them in pots...

[@BenBSeattle]

These do not crack here. Might be due to climate differences and no fig wasp. I let the 2nd one basically wilt on the tree and it did not crack.

[@panpeter2969]

@@BenBSeattle And did the 2nd one taste better?

[@hayadiandriana52]

Really love it... Can anyone give me cutting fiorone fig trees?

[@antoniadubois7833]

So true, but it is better to transplant the tree in the land.

[@kouiderzahra3584]

I think the good fig is in the north africa Algeria ...

[@ramonacole1845]

Hello do you sell any cuttings off of this tree?

[@davidfox3650]

Where did you obtain this fig variety from and what is your hardiness zone?

[@BenBSeattle]

I got mine from Harvey @figaholics

[@davidfox3650]

What is your zone?

[@BenBSeattle]

8B

[@davidfox3650]

My hardiness zone is 5B . A few years ago I planted a Hardy Chicago fig tree outside in my garden with the roots at. a 45 degree angle. In April I take away the bags of ceder mulch which protects the tree from the cold winters that we have. I use a rope to keep the tree upright. In the end of October I take away the rope and the tree drops down to the ground. I cover it with mulch again. It's over 10 feet high now with a lot of figs which never get a chance to ripen.

[@michellechew724]

Mr Nguyen, can I buy this cutting from u ? Thanks

[@sasquatchdonut2674]

That fig is a jackfruit in terms of figs o_o

[@cathrinem2722]
