Negretta Red Leaf Stems

16 years ago

For those that have not seen this picture here it is of my negretta with red stems and veins in leaves. Its a slow growing plant but healthy just grows slower than most and wants to be a bush but i refuse it by pruning till it gets to a height that i want.

Nice fig/pic Martin.
I think that I just lost my Negretta (my fault).
But luckily, I do have a small rooted starter...

Martin,
please let us know if this fig requires caprification,
my Negretta is still very small,personally I believe this
to be one of the hardiest fig tree.Ciao,
Giuseppe
