Glen,
Unfortunately I don't have this fig in specific, but is there anything special about the Gillette fig? I have a Gillette razor though.
As far as fig mosaic, I've seen large figs that are very productive, and have no problem as far as vigor. Fig mosaic doesn't spoil the fig fruit, but it's only noticable on the leaves.
Are you aware that the Gillette is a caprifig? meaning it will never fruit in areas where the fig wasps are not around to pollinate them. Southern California and the mideterranean are the only regions that this variety would set fruit.

Does anyone happen to know where I might be able to find a Gillette
(aka: Cordelia, Croisic , St. John) fig plant, which does not have
fig mosaic virus?

 

 

 


Thank you,

Glen
