socalgardengal , Hello gardengall, Very interesting! I am from continental Portugal (south) and cannot remember of any fig similar to yours around here. Any idea of the region where the owner brought the trees from? They look varieties from either Açores or Madeira, particularly the green fig, looks like 'BACORINHO' from Madeira The black fig could be 'CASTANHOL' also from Madera but not sure.. cheers Francisco

I did some research and I think that it is a Lemon Italian Honey fig. Can anyone confirm this please?

Thanks hoosierbanana! i just applied Neem Oil to the whole plant (stems & leaves). i was told to reapply after 10 days. i hope this solves the problem. thanks again hoosierbanana :)

Typically, lack of humidity is the culprit. Spider mites like it warm and dry......the usual conditions indoors. I have no idea how big your fig is but hosing or spraying it down with water periodically (like once a week) will help. So will spraying with a horticultural oil like neem oil. Neem oil is a particularly effective miticide.
