Notes

Kadota. Planted in the spring from Green Thumb Nursery. Has FMV. Fruiting as of August 2015, same year it was planted. 13 figs this year!

UPDATE 3/21/2016: 4 figs reached maturity and were eaten, and another 3 reached maturity during a cold spell and dropped before I discovered they were ripe. One fig did not drop at all, and is still on the tree, possibly to ripen at some unexpected moment this spring. The fig is setting a significant breba crop this year, at least as big as last year's fall crop. This is a wonderful and productive tree.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
