Description
Condit Monograph:
Stanford. Described and illustrated by Condit (1920a, 1933); description only (1947). This variety was mentioned by Rixford (1912) under the name Stanford as “a splendid tree, growing at the Stanford ranch at Vina. It was raised from a cutting imported by the writer during the winter of 1881-1882, from the Smyrna district of Asia Minor.” According to A. Nadir and M. Halit (1929), Kara Ilek, the best caprifig of the Smyrna fig district, is the same as Stanford. Distributed by W. H. Samson, Corning, as Capri No. 1 Stanford and Roeding No. 3 are the best commercial varieties of caprifig grown in California.
Tree vigorous, spreading (see plate 3, and Condit, 1920a); terminal buds green; leaves above medium to large, 5-lobed, middle lobe up to 2-3/4 inches broad; sinuses medium to deep; base truncate to suBC Some variety strains are attributed to this now closed nursery and have the BC, BN or Belleclare suffix appended to the variety names.
Mamme crop good; figs medium or above, up to 1-1/2 inches in diameter, obliqueturbinate, mostly with short, thick neck and short stalk; ribs present, slightly elevated; white flecks large and conspicuous; color green, with prominent bloom; eye scales light green.
Profichi crop excellent; figs above medium, pyriform, generally oblique; neck distinct, often somewhat curved; stalk up to 1/4 inch long; ribs not prominent; eye scales chaffy; white flecks scattered, inconspicuous; color light green; interior white (plate 6).
