San Danielle

About

San Danielle is an Italian variety alleged to produce medium to large fruit with a rich berry flavour. Named after the town of San Daniele del Friuli in northeastern Italy, it is part of the broader tradition of Italian heritage figs prized for their flavour intensity and productivity. Details on this variety are limited in English-language sources — this is a first-year tree in the collection and notes will be updated as it matures.

Growing Notes

• First year in the collection — tree is establishing.
• Alleged to produce medium to large fruit with berry flavour.
• Italian origin — likely suited to zones 7–10 in-ground, or zone 6+ in containers.
• Growing notes and tasting impressions will be added after first harvest.

My Notes

This is a first year tree — super excited to try it out. Looking forward to seeing how it performs in a Chicago climate. Will update with tasting notes and growing observations once it produces.
