Description
Eric Durtschi:
It is not known if this requires pollination so please don't buy this unless you want to take a gamble. That said, I usually see lots of dried up dropped figs on smyrna types but the only dropped figs here were ripe ones that fell down.
This is for a wonderful fig that was found this last year in Santa Barbara. It is not known if it is a seedling or if it was planted but it is growing from the base of a huge palm tree and it seems to have Palmata parentage.
The figs are very good. Super soft skin with a strong cherry/berry flavor and full of honey and soft and juicy. When allowed to dry on the tree, they become intensely cherry flavored. I did not see one fig on the tree that had spoiled so it looks like it can dry on the tree even in our cool climate.The tree has 85%+ spade leaves and is very attractive.

Cherry Cordial is a unique fig. It has a lot of breba forming now but I don't know if they will ripen. This tree has 85%+ spade leaves and looks like a palmata hybrid of some sort. It could be a seedling as it is growing from the base of a huge palm tree. This tree was found by Fig Gazer It is an excellent fig with a VERY soft skin and strong berry flavor. It is not a very dense fig but just loaded with juicy syrup and these can dry on the tree for a very intense raspberry little snack.
