Fig 'Rezovska'
Ficus carica Rezovska, Fig Rezovska from Botanical Garden - Plovdiv, Bulgaria
This variety came from an old tree, which we found in a private garden in Rezovo. Soon after we propagated it, a new building was built on the site and the tree was destroyed. The qualities of the variety are very good and it deserves to be propagated and spread more widely.
Rezovska fig has a very good taste, with hints of wild berries. The fruits are black in color, with a strong skin and good resistance to transport and storage. It gives a main crop, which begins to ripen at the end of August, under the conditions of Southern Bulgaria and the Black Sea coast.
Cold damage begins at temperatures below -14 to -16 degrees, and the trees freeze to the ground at temperatures below -18 degrees.

Fig variety Turkish Gold
Fig variety Turkish Gold
Ficus carica Turkish Gold
This is a variety with very juicy and delicious fruits. It is suitable only for the warmer regions of Bulgaria because the new branches do not harden off very well and are prone to frost.
Moisture during fruit ripening affects the crop. The "eye" opens easily, after which the fruit ferments. Therefore, watering should be avoided after the beginning of August.
It is not yet known whether this variety needs pollination.

Fig variety Brunswick
Ficus carica Brunswick, Fig variety Brunswick from Botanical Garden - Plovdiv, Bulgaria
Brunswick is a popular variety worldwide and probably the second most popular variety in Bulgaria!
It produces two crops - first crop (June to July), and the main crop (August to October). As with all fig varieties pollinated fruits are of much higher quality. The fruit taste is delicious, juicy and with high sugar content. In some years the fruits tend to split, depending on weather conditions.
This fig variety has very good cold tolerance and that is why it is so popular in Bulgaria. It is especially often found around Varna and Stambolijski, where they grow in almost each yard.
