Marloo fig tree 10 gal (32770272)

10 gal (half of a 20 gal pot cut in half)

my source is slavi of kirkland, wa

mature tree fruited before it has some fruit developing now

marloo is similar to olympian fig. ben seattle has review this variety on his blog and youtube channel it has names marlow or marloo

Marlow breba crop Early Season (August 3, 2018) longer neck compared to Olympian. very similar in taste mildly sweet. less sweet than brown turkey. Marlow is slightly better in taste than the Olympian, which has a slight figgy taste. Marlow has a smoother skin than Olympian. Marlow is medium size compared to Olympian is larger. Everything else is almost the same. If you already have an Olympian than you don't need to get Marlow. So let me sum it up, the only difference is the skin texture. To me, it makes a difference, but to some, the skin doesn't matter when they are that similar. If skin texture is important to you, then Marlow is better in that sense. Gene Vashon is another very similar, hopefully, in 2020 summer, I can compare all three.

NOTE:

Fig Mosaic Emaravirus: Please assume all my fig trees have been exposed to FMV. They may not show any symptoms now but can carry FMV. During stress, FMV can show up. I cannot guarantee my plants are free from FMV. However, with proper care, they will grow out of FMV.

Photos: some of my plants during winter will have no leaves when dormant. I usually update new photos in April when leaves come back. If you would like before you buy you can message me to take a photo of it before you click to buy. In the winter tree may be prune to remove any dieback. I don't always have my phone with me to snap a new photo when I happen to trim it. The tree could look a little different from the time I took the photo to the time you buy since my listing are buy it now prices and listed until sold.

Fall to Early Spring Shipping Option: I ONLY SHIP BARE ROOT, the fig in the listing is in a pot, but when you receive it, it will not have a pot. You will not receive a potted tree as pictured unless you picked up in person. Most extra soil will be removed and the root will be wrapped in a ziplock/plastic bag and secured (and no I don't wrap the roots in a moist towel). I usually do a partial bare root, meaning simply removing excess soil, I don't do a full bare root meaning I don't wash the roots to be completely free of soil. Partial or full bare root will depend on the tree when I see it.. I'm unable to show you what the roots look like before I bare root. I don't bare root the tree until I actually ship the tree. If there are ever any issues when you receive it please message me within 24 hours of receiving the package with photos or video I will try my best to help you. And, please plant it into a pot or in-ground as soon as you receive it. And, in Early Spring it will leaf out. 

Spring to Summer: As my dormant trees wake up I will stop offering to ship. And I will be turning off my shipping option. I think Around September/October when the trees start to go dormant the shipping option will be turned back on for bare root shipping.

For local buyers coming to pick up, the tree will be potted and not bare-root. please message me before click to buy If you pick up in person I will remove the shipping cost. Bare root will be for shipping only. after payment please message me to schedule and time and date to come to pick up in Renton, WA thank you

About my plants: I use Miracle Grow Organic Potting mix and use Dr. Earth's best organic fruit fertilizer during spring.
