Apparently we're about to be given a fig tree, grown as a cutting from a
tree my outlaws brought back from Sicily (or possibly a neighbouring island)
many years ago. Their gardener doesn't know which variety it is but says
the fruit is absolutely wonderful. Does anyone know of a particular type
of fig grown in Sicily and that area?
