Bass / Black Madeira

14 years ago

Just got a Black Madeira Fig from Bass @ Trees of joy in Pa..

The tree is all what I expected and for those of you who has or had a question about him the answer is he is a Noble man.

I would trust him as much as I do dealing with Jon, George, Adriano just to name a few.

The man took the time to answer my questions and concerns and made this transaction very simlpe.

I know there are others that have dealt with other dealers that had the same feeling as I do.

It's those good men and women in this trade that make this hobby such a joy and puts all those WORTHLESS dealers in the bottom of the DIRT pile.

Thank you Jon, Bass, Adriano and all those honest venders I did not mention.

It is you that contributes the knowledge, time and effort to hobbiest from all walks of life around the world.

Like someone mentioned in another post a week or two ago,

All we're doing is trying to improve our collection!

You know, He is right! This is not a contest!

It is just a hobby! And a fruitfull one!

I just want to know how Bass grows BANANAS in zone 6 of all places? LOL

I'm guessing the laws of physics rests in his yard. and LOL

Thank you,

Rafed

I totally agree. I've purchased several trees from Bass over the past 6 months. I gave him my number and he called me and talked about my order and other trees he has. My trees always arrive safe and intact. He is a very nice man and highly recommended. Dennis aka snaglpus

kkfromnj, so you have a bird problem. I had that problem too a few years back, so I went to a feed and seed store and bought some very light plastic netting and covered the tree all over and down to the ground, about the time for ripening and found if the bird can't get to the fig he can't hurt it. It is very cheap and well worth it, as I got all the figs.

Tom thanks for presenting your video on Black Madeira . Still have an original from UcDavis from 2008 that over the years been airlayering to try and get a cleaner example by selecting certain branches that seemed clean then growing and repeat process on new plant and finally did get a clean one it grew for 3/4 years clean. But it died this spring it was CLEAN and have pictures to show if needed. The original one also died or so thought but came back and before storage this fall now looked much better. So the process to get more starts again as it is the best tasting on personal palate even pot grown here near Chicago. Tom as a note lost a few other types this spring including the younger clean madeira as last fall's rain were heavy then cold set in suddenly then in spring roots were rotted to make long story shorter.
