Opinions on Rosselino?

[ktrain]

I'm trying this one out this year, actually still getting a few.
Today I had one drying on the tree.

They are really good even now, I didn't get a whole lot earlier in the year but if they're this good now....they should be even better during prime ripening time.

Opinion?

New one for me as well. They have been ripening funny but have been good tasting. Seems like it will be much better next season.

I've had it for a couple complete seasons now. I really enjoy it. Smaller fig but handles humid climate very well. Great tasting sweet fruit.
Kevin Q, Chesapeake Figs set me up with a mature tree.

Have not tried that one. But then again still many I have not tried.

Had one inground for 3 years , it was productive and cold hardy but the figs were average tasting. Culled it this spring because I don't have unlimited sunny spots for inground trees. Replaced it with a 2nd year Cessac. Definitely an upgrade

I have quite a few small figs, wasn't really wanting another one, but I will keep it around for a couple seasons.
Mostly because my wife likes it...even though there are few that she does not like. lol

I liked it. Small fig, bright flavor. Tasted good even out of season in San Diego. Nothing amazing, but I liked it.

I am a fan of Rossellino, it does have the ability to dry on the tree well. It does well for me both in a pot, and in the ground in zone 7b. I like the look of it and leaf shape a lot too.

I've been finding mine a slow grower. Not sure why. I've been looking forward to trying one but a couple years in and the tree is still tiny.

Hey.... to me, Atreano is just "fine". But, my wife absolutely loves it... which means I'll be growing it forever.

I'm cool with that. I love it when my wife and kid get into it... even if it's not my own favourite.

Happy wife, happy life.

That is so true. lol

My wife is never happy I just don’t worry about it.

For me it's just middle of the pack. It does well in the rain and doesn't split. However,it grows slow and the figs are small. Meh.

They are small, not sure yet if I want to keep it around.
I'll give it one more year, Amy will never know if I give it the boot. lol

Unless you actually do it, and then she will be looking for it.

But hey, then they won’t be fighting you for figs from YOUR favorite variety!
