Zach’s Honey Fig

Description

I bought this tree years ago and then forgot about it. I don’t even remember where it came from. Then I saw a golden-looking fruit about half split open on a branch. I had never seen anything like this. It was glistening. I made a post to ask people to remind me what it was. The ones who knew agreed. “That’s Peter’s Honey Fig!”

Well, I don’t even know Peter. I wish him well, but I’m a have to say that the specimens I offer you are Zach’s Honey Fig, taken from what I lovingly refer to as Needle Street, from a spot where dice once rolled and deals were made.

All of these trees are air layered. This is a simple process that ensures that you get the same genetics as the parent. And the tree will produce fruit the first year.

The best thing about Zach’s Honey Fig is that it is sneaky. Adapted. Has found a way to trick the birds into thinking that the fruit is not ripe. They don’t even know. Get it now before the birds get wiser. I’m telling you. You dry these babies and they taste like candy.
