Description

Figs have been a part of my life on and off  from the beginning, continuously now for more than 10 years. I have a small collection that I've been working with and have only sold trees to the local elderly through the newspaper. The Valentine unknown fig is one that was purchased from eBay as an unknown and has turned out to be one of my best varieties. The exterior color can range from a brown to red the interior of the fig can range from a almost translucent flesh to orange red flesh. It has a very thin skin with a very unique flavor profile it is very rich the sweetness is a clean sugar sweet it is the heaviest producer out of the varieties that I have, it puts on two crops. I have always compared this one with I 258 and it's grow habits of production the only thing that I 258 has over the Valentine unknown is it's wonderful Berry flavor the Valentine just has a very unique flavor profile they average in weight from 45 to 65 grams on the main crop. I don't think this variety would do well in a hot dry climate like Arizona I believe it would do much better for those in a milder climate it seems to be fairly cold hardy I think it would work for anyone in 7a or higher for in-ground. In a couple of the pictures you will see the Valentine ukn with I -258 in the last picture is the actual cuttings that are to be listed all cuttings will have at least three nodes.

I will be listing the cuttings at buy now so that everyone will have an opportunity hopefully to get one. I will be listing one rooted cutting at auction the proceeds will be going to ourfig forum I myself am not a forum member that's just something I don't do online social media type things but I do believe that ourfig forum is the number one asset for fig collectors. I'm sure I have left something out so if you have any questions please feel free to contact me! one thing I need to add the reason for naming this variety the Valentine fig I received my cuttings on Valentine's day the exterior color can sometimes be red and also you never know what the interior color will be until you cut one open. 

The cuttings will be shipped out priority mail unless you request otherwise.  

This listing is for 2 cuttings!
