Irene's Dark Greek is a fig we received last year from my great friend Dennis Johnson, a long-time figaholic in North Carolina. Our tree is still small and has suffered a bit from a long heat wave this year but is going to be fine once weather cools down a bit. The tree appears to be very productive and our first fruit from the tree was much better than expected from such a young and small tree. It had medium to rich berry flavor, moderately to very sweet, dark red pulp, and medium in size. Dennis assured me the fruit will get even better as the tree ages.
Here's the history of this fig from my friend Dennis Johnson:
According to North Carolina's Mecklenburg County courthouse records two Greek immigrants came to America in 1942. They brought four cuttings with them and just stuck them in the ground behind their house. One cutting struck and the mother tree is still there! They sold the house to Dennis' friend Irene in 2000. Irene brought Dennis over to her house to see the tree and what a site it is. Irene sold the house right after Dennis was able to get four airlayers off of it. Dennis gave her one and kept the rest. We're thankful he shared it with us!
