I Bred A NEW FIG TREE…And It’s A COL DE DAME Fig!

Показать описание
I developed a brand new fig variety as a part of my fig tree breeding program. This newly bred fig tree is a cross between the male caprifig 'UCR 271-1 Saleeb' and the female common fig Coll de Dama Gegantina / Col de Dame Gegantina.

It has maintained much of the female parent's DNA in that it is a greenish-yellow skinned fig with a very chewy texture and jammy center. However, this is the FIRST fig the tree has ever produced, so it will continue to evolve as it ages and express more of its genetics. I expect the fig to become very large since both the mother and father fig trees are big figs. It is also exhibiting the long neck and tight eye of the mother, which are ideal traits.

I think this fig will have A LOT of potential.

I watched your video on hand pollenation with the saleeb great video. I'm in the process of getting some saleeb cuttings now. Can you tell me more about the offspring i cant find or haven't seen much on hiw they do. Since both parents are persistent are all offspring persistent or male and female mix what percentage thank you bud

Can you pollinate a black Madeira by itself or what fig variety is needed?

I found a fig borer on an unhealthy fig tree in the neighbourhood yesterday...i didnt want to kill it cos it was kind of cute, so I took it home and PUT IT ON MY OWN HEALTHY FIG TREE LOL. However when I read up how bad it was for my tree, i had to feed it to the chickens 😅 can you do a video on fig pests and diseases if you havent already?

Do you have a video that shows us how to propagate fig trees? I have two growing in my yard One is a baby and one is a couple years old. Is there a way that I can make more fig trees from them? Do you have a video about that?
