I got a “Black Madeira” this year from a local nursery that most of my friends think it’s a NOT. I also think it’s a NOT, since it looks nothing like my Craven Craving. BM type usually has no stem but with neck. This one has almost no neck but some has stem.
I didn't have that much time this year, so the rooted cutting is still super tiny, chopsticks sized trunk. I was surprised that it managed to set three figs and ripened them. The figs are nice and big too and it has strong berry taste.
I'm really into the mystery of unknown fig. I will up-pot this one and maybe graft it on a rootstock to see what it really is.
I know that it's not a mislabeled tree from the source since I got picture from them that looks exactly like mine. My best guess is that it's Brogiotto Nero type. What do you guys think?
