Here’s something that surprised me … I was at a fruit gathering earlier this year and there were two collectors there, obviously of asian decent, but speaking fluent Portuguese! It turns out they were both raised in southern Brazil.

I eat some figs from my trees but i even forgot they exist… 
My ex-coworker was of Korean descent but raised in Brazil, so I’m not surprised about that.

Me too!
I got my second tree because this variety is soo rare and it’s a way to have a backup tree if anything happen to the other.
Good plan. I’ve done that with a few specimens too.

Yes and it’s great! I love it! 
It’s like a sweet juicy cotton candy with a green seed inside…
