Amrita (Sanskrit) Amrit or Amata in Pali, means "immortality" and is often referred to as nectar, ambrosia.This unique seedling fig found by Sacred Origin in 2019 is not only large and beautiful with a closed eye, but the taste is fantastic and complex. This beauty queen starts out green with purple stripes. As it matures the purple becomes predominant and almost black around the closed ostiole .Foreground notes of moderate berry with background notes of sweet citrus that you can taste on the side of the tongue.... mouthwatering and juicy.Unsure about the breba, but the main crop is common and does NOT require the fig wasp to produce these large gems.I don't think this is a good fig for those in rainy climates due to the thin skin which is like velvet, melts in your mouth, and stains your fingers, however it is just not known at this time. Ripens with beautiful cracks and seems resistant to bugs and fermentation even under extreme heat of Northern California. Usually large figs will be watered down, but this one is as complex and concentrated as it gets. A top tier delicious fig that you will want in your collection. Ripe figs started around Aug 1 in zone 9b Northern California.
This interesting fig may prove to be very valuable to those wishing to pollinate their figs and enjoy tasty figs all in one season. Adam Apricot has a productive early breba crop of in-edible violet- colored male figs filled with pollen and wasps. The edible summer crop is a green yellow fig with an interior color ranging from pink to golden. The flesh of the almost fully ripe edible figs taste of honeydew melon. The riper figs taste of unmistakable apricot.The edible summer crop is very prolific. It appears that the edible crop has few seeds with some fruits containing zero seeds. It is likely that this is what we call a persistent capri fig. Offspring of persistent caprifigs will be more likely common, making it a very valuable resource for breeding experiments as well as tasty edible summer figs that have an apricot jelly like texture and taste. Please note that the edible main crop may require caprification or wasps to ripen. We dont know enough yet.
3 Strawberry Sorbet Scions/Cuttings
Strawberry Sorbet
This is an exciting new release by Sacred Origin. This is a unique seedling that tastes of rich fresh sweet strawberry, not the watery ones.The color and flavors are super rich.Common, no fig wasp required.The super ripe figs have a hint of cinnamon. The eye is sealed by a red drop of rich strawberry nectar.This fig is in top 5 best tasting figs we have ever had.
This unique seedling was discovered by Sacred Origin in 2019 . The main crop is proven common. Guavaberry is located near the Amrita fig tree in a grove of seedlings and is a possible relative. Breba crop is unknown. The main crop is prolific.
Foreground notes of guava, strawberry, mango and hints of floral hibiscus. Rich concentrated flavor especially rare in larger figs. Nice citric strawberry tang with balanced sweetness. Very good fig. Large, closed eye. Beautiful green exterior and ruby colored inner flesh. Possibly resistant to splitting in rainy conditions
Originates from a very old seedling with unbelievably large leaves. Rich unmistakable strawberry and mixed berry flavors. Delicious! First ripe figs July 27. in zone 9b Northern California. A medium to large yellow/green fig with inner flesh that varies from red maroon to a dark amber pulp. The pulp near the skin is very creamy and the red amber inner flesh is of strawberry with a little citric tang. The ostiole (eye) is tight/ closed and is resistant to bug or mold entry. Skin is thick and chewy. This fig would probably do well in rainy climates. There will be a very limited amount of these being offered in the future due to accessibility. The mother tree sits in middle of an ancient olive orchard and is not watered. I imagine that with water these figs will be quite large.
Common!

Creme di Mora
Another unique seedling found in a ditch outside of a ranch on the side of the road near almond and plum orchards.
This fruity mixed berry flavored fig found in close proximity to the kiwi fig, the creme di mango fig and a couple others yet to be released.
This fig features fore notes of distinct strawberry, blueberry & blackberry / a mixed fruit with a banana creaminess.
This is another rich tasting fig we've come to love.
The interior is very dark burgundy to red and the exterior is black/blue-ish.
The Skin is medium thick . Creme di Mora (Blackberry Cream) dries well on tree without spoilage or fermenting.
Common! Does not require the wasp. I do not know if there is a breba crop. This fig ripens early to mid season in zone 9b.
Taste is of honey and plum with some background notes of blueberry!
Medium to large fig. This is a unique seedling was discovered a few years ago by Sacred Origin.
Common, no wasp needed.
Recent report on ourfigs is that it handled a hard freeze well.
This is a unique seedling found in a culvert ditch on the side of a road in the Olive Capital of Northern California.What comes to mind immediately when tasting this gem is the little pies I used to get as a kid that had a frosting glazed over it. This is another top notch fig that I could brag on about for days. I am in awe at how rich and satisfying this fig is. You will want this fig in your collection! The skin is delicious and edible on this variety and you will want to eat it. This tree appears to be very productive some nodes had two rather large figs. The eye on most of the ripe figs appeared slightly open but with a drop of blood red honey closing it up. I did not come across any rotten or molded ones. I imagine this fig is going to hold up well in the rain and be resistant to splitting. The figs started to ripen mid season. "Cherry Pie" dehydrates on the tree without fermenting. The mother tree does not receive irrigation or water and I imagine these somewhat large figs become even bigger with watering.You will not be disappointed with this fig and it will likely be one of the top best tasting figs you will ever experience. Note for picts: The orange colored fig pictured with the "cherry pie" is the very productive and delicious apricot and banana flavored LiVolsi fig
Tropical Goldenberry is a green/yellow unique seedling found near amrita and guavaberry. Tropical Goldenberry features a ruby red and pink inner flesh. The eye/ostiole is tight and closed. One tester shared this: "Tropical fruity...at times I detected a slight pineapple zing..there was some sort of acidity....but it was hard to put my finger on a single fruit flavor...it was like a blend...delicious...chewy skin."The plate of decorative fruits, herbs and flowers also has the dark fig " black dawn" on there.This tree was discovered by Sacred Origin in 2019 but we have not been able to confirm yet if it is common. I believe it will be as there were many late figs with pure jelly and no viable seeds but it has NOT been officially tested. All the wasps probably had already entered earlier fruit. Only time will tell.
3 Kiwi fig Scions/Cuttings
Sacred Origin's Kiwi fig is a unique seedling found in Northern California in a ditch. Kiwi is a delightful mixed color fig that showcases a violet green and yellow exterior with a red inner flesh that tastes of perfectly ripe sweet kiwi. A mix of green and golden kiwi flavors that are sure to excite your taste buds with that kiwi and pineapple citric tang. The eyes are closed. The skin is slightly chewy. This fig does not require the fig wasp for pollination. The mother tree is ancient.

Creme di Fragola (strawberry cream)
Creme di Fragola are large green figs with a jammy bright blood red interior. Strawberry and rhubarb pie flavors. Dries well on the tree. As fig ripens and starts to dehydrate you can taste background notes of cinnamon, bergamont and perilla. Complex and concentrated strawberry flavor with a slight tart rhubarb notes reminiscent of strawberry rhubarb pie with a cream topping. This is one of the best tasting figs Iv'e ever had in all of my fig finding experiences thus far. If I could only grow one fig this would be it. This is a very obvious seedling as its growing between olive trees in a very old olive orchard of the olive capital of Northern California. Chewy thick skin that you will want to eat even if you don't normally eat skins. The eye is tight, no sign of bugs, rot or mold in any of the figs I picked.Tree is productive and I imagine if the tree was watered, the figs would be giant. I typically find larger figs to be diluted in flavor which is not the case with Crema di Fragola. Due to the thicker skin and tight eye, I would predict this fig does well in rainy climates without splitting.Delicious must have fig.My three year old typically only eats the inside of the figs and hands me the skin, with creme di fragola she shoves an entire half of the fig into her mouth and eats the skin on these. Common Fig that does not require pollination. I am not sure yet if it has a breba or just main crop.

Sacred Origin's Danny Boy
Danny Boy is a new release by Sacred Origin. Not much is known about this capri fig at this time, but it shows some interesting qualities that may be of interest to breeders. Danny Boy is very prolific, creating figs on ever single node from the top to sometimes down to the bottom near the soil line. This fig becomes buzzing with tiny fig wasps and produces 3 reliable fig crops each year. The main crop is green with a slight purple blush and light colored interior.
Danny Boy produces an abundant Mamme crop ( green ) with an even more productive profichi crop in June- July.
Come time, millions and billions of tiny fig wasps will emerge from the mamme fig and enter the profichi.
By definition, a Mamme is a main crop fig which forms too late to ripen in the Fall and instead stays on and ripens in the Spring.
The profichi crop resemble edible figs, except they are filled with wasps and pollen-bearing stamens. This tree gets covered with wasps. This is an ancient tree.
****Caprifigs of Ficus carica produce three crops of syconia per year: the profichi which ripen in early summer; the mammoni which ripen in fall; and the mamme which overwinter on the tree and ripen in spring. The pollen-bearing profichi crop is used to pollinate the Calimyrna figs in June. The overwintering mamme crop house wasps through the cold winter months and are quite visible on the leafless branches. Female trees produce only two crops of syconia annually, a breba crop which ripens in early summer and a second (main) crop which ripens in fall. During the receptive (immature) summer stage, this second crop receives pollen from the mature caprifig profichi crop. Although caprifig syconia incubate and perpetuate the tiny fig wasp, seeds may also develop in the short-style flowers. This is especially true of mammoni syconia in which pollination (from profichi crop) results in some ovaries (without wasps) developing seeds with viable embryos."
1 Blackberry Tart Scions/Cuttings
Sacred Origin's Blackberry Tart is a delicious black fig with a purple/red inner flesh. When allowed to fully ripen, the flesh is almost black ( first picture ) on the interior. Rich, complex, flavorful, sweet. This one takes me back to the times as a kid when I had wild blackberry pies/tarts. It is not often that I come across a fig that gets this dark of an interior. The flavor is outstanding and the figs get rather large. This is a very special fig.
