Fig variety Magnifica Dry
Ficus carica Magnifica Dry, Fig variety
from Botanical Garden - Plovdiv, Bulgaria
The variety originates from Turkey.
Magnifica Dry. Why that name?
The fruits of this fig are medium to large. They remain green after ripening, so are not attractive to the birds. Inside are red, sweet, but ... drier than other figs. This is a variety that is delicious, but because of the drier meat does not ferment quickly and after ripening is ready for drying. The skin of the fruits is thin, so they quickly turn into perfectly dried figs of excellent quality.
This variety bears two crops, in June (breba) and in August-September (main crop).

Early variety, ripens from late August until the first frosts, as the fruits ripen, even when the branches are left without leaves. They weigh 50-70 g. The skin is thin, but the fruits are very resistant to manipulation and this makes them excellent late figs for the market.
The name Verdone CL is a subject of debate among experts. In general, this name in Italian language is suitable for a light-colored fig, not a dark one like this. This variety came to us with this name from the famous Italian nursery Apice Piante. To avoid confusion, we kept the original name. Regardless of the name, however, the variety is magnificent, produces abundantly and the fruits are of excellent quality.

Ficus carica Michurinska-10, Fig from Botanical Garden - Plovdiv, Bulgaria
The height of the plants varies from 15 to 40 cm.
This size is the smallest we have in the nursery, in 3 liters pot.
Michurinska-10 is the most common fig variety in Bulgaria. The name was given more than 50 years ago by Radka Serafimova during her scientific research on varieties of figs in Bulgaria. The scientific name is not known among the people and in different regions of the country they call it "The little fig", "Ali Pasha", "Brown", and in places where no other variety can grow - simply "The Fig".
Variety Michurinska-10 is probably the most cold resistant good quality fig in the world. This is an old Bulgarian local variety that is found only in Bulgaria and some regions of Macedonia, Serbia and Romania. This variety produces main crop on the new shoots. This means that even if it freezes to the ground in colder areas, it will still produce a main crop the following season.
Variety Michurinska-10 produces abundant crops. This variety is the only one in Bulgaria, which always and each year without exception, gives a good crop of quality fruits.
Michurinska-10 gives two crops in the summer, one in June and the main crop in late July or early August ( for the plains in southern Bulgaria ). The fruits contiune to ripen until late September, and with the right waether - also until the end of October.
In the coldest places in the northern and western Bulgaria maturation may be similar to that in southern Bulgaria , but if the plant freezes to the ground every year, it will produce only main crop that may ripe later.
Damage from cold start at temperatures below -16 to -19 degrees Celsius, and old trees to the ground freeze at temperatures below -22 degrees Celsius. In places with cooler summers, the freeze damage may appear earlier.
