I have a pretty short list for figs to acquire in the next year or two. I don't think I'll probably need more that. Yellow long neck and/or a similar UCR variety, Smith, I258, Sao Miguel or MBVS, maybe another VdB type or RdB. Already have a couple Mt Etnas, Ischia Green, Improved Celeste, VdB, and a CddN.

Thanks for the tour. Great info on trees that I may want to add to my collection in the spring.

[@ranchodiablaacres3967]

Hey Ross, great fig talk, as always. When is the highly anticipated Yellow Long Neck vs Golden Rainbow video coming? :)

[@RossRaddi]

Soon.

[@guycolonna5846]

Thank you the informative video on how to bid on figbid.

18:48 Verdino del Nord (sp?) = Figoin, interesting.. Got a couple from Harvey, I will have to update my version of your spreadsheet (and thanks again for sharing that).

[@connorwestgate]

if i could only grow one fig tree, what in your opinion is THE ONE fig for growing in ground in zone 7?

[@southernlivinggardenbymama9]

Thank you for sharing. Awesome as always!

[@jamesdonofrio4899]

Would white Tirana fig be a good one to try in Cincinnati zone 6b?

[@2brownbraids]

[@slipknot95maggot]

Pretty upset I couldn't make my second consecutive year of Figfest but best believe I'm planning early for next year. Glad to hear it was another success though When the camera pans up and out I *STILL* find myself thinking "Ooh, he's got compan-......... damn it not again.........." XDD *sigh* Anyway, thanks for the vid as always!

Omg that scarecrow is creepy🤣🤣🤣

[@anwarhasan4308]

Interested in some variety

[@thegooch7206]

It’s been 2yrs since this video and in my opinion Texas BA-1 has replaced Smith.

[@rogeliocastillo7147]

Ross Raddi please spare me some variety of you fig trees i would like to propagate them like you. Thank you very much and more power to you.

[@countryrose763]

Where can I buy certain varieties. Presently only have Three blackturkey, I want early because I am in Ontario and sweet.

[@zawape]

Thank you for sharing. Do you have desert king in your collection? How does it perform for you?

[@RossRaddi]

It doesn't perform well. My spring has big temperature swings resulting in most of the breba crop dropping.

Scarecrow!!
