You will see the figs I got.In October 2023 that BOSSINA gave me on 10/25/23 and on 10/28/23.As her tree was nearing the end of the 2023 season.She told me on 10/25/23.That she picked 20 figs that morning.And has been picking bowls full throughout the 2023 season.As I looked at the tree on 10//25/23.It was still ripening many figs which I was amazed at.She said during the ripening time.Her fig has red thin skin.With a very red sweet red pulp.Its all fig she said.The figs you see in the photos are late October and November figs.The skin gets a little thicker.As the cold sets in but it keeps pushing figs.This is an extremely hardy EGYPTIAN VARIETY.AS THIS WOMAN TOLD ME ITS VERY PRODUCTIVE EVERY YEAR.This Egyptian variety is here to stay for me.I just might put one in the ground.Which I don’t do anymore.I say this unique variety is worth the northeast wrapping that I got away from.Although BOSSINA does not wrap her tree.I will grow more than one.I have two outside now in 5 gallon squat pots.For BOSSINA’S daughter.I have two outside for myself.It’s very smooth creamy and sweet.Boy did I luck out.I now have another fig Bud.NOW FROM ALEXANDRIA EGYPT.I assume all fig trees have or have been exposed to FMV.The plant you see is the plant you will receive.Your plant will ship priority mail.It will ship wrapped in a 4x4x24.Strong top loading box.This plant will just make it in a 24 inch tall box.If needed I will ship it.To hold the shipping costs down some.It will be water heavy.To make its USPS journey in case of a delay.Which has been happening.It will be wrapped to hold the water.It will be staked to keep your plant secure.From bouncing around.I cannot control the shipping costs.I try to control the price of the plant.The plants are costing less.The shipping is costing more.Their is no way around this anymore.The only thing that can help the shipping costs.Is to ship plants under 18 inches.I probably will do that next year.I will have to cut them at 16 inches or less.To get into a 4x418 inch strong top loading box.To minimize the shipping costs.But I will worry about that next year.To late now the plants are what they are.
