This tree is my favorite for flavor, but has erratic, often too-late production. I don't recommend it here as an "only" tree. But, the flavor is one of the very best. So I grow it among the others. The name is "Petite negri" but I've seen it given other names, "Negronne", "Aubique petite" and others. I never know what to call it.
Eventually I want to remove the fig trees, south of the house, to extend the wildfire mitigation zone. The tree is too big for me to transplant. Also, I moved it here from Vancouver in 2017. It was hard work, and it took a few years to recover. So I thought, if I can get a good air layer to work, then pamper the new tree, maybe it will establish faster than a moved tree anyway.
The air layer method was the same as for Lattarula, done at the same time. Link here. I did two for this tree. I removed the smaller one, higher on the tree, about two few weeks ago. It had minimal roots. I don't think enough to establish a tree. This one was an off-shoot at the bade of the tree.
So here's the "Burrito" air layer, with string removed.
It felt firm and hard, so I thought either the hot weather dried it out, or the air layer grew roots that dried it out. Checking under the foil, the soil was packed with roots. So I cut it off.
