New varieties - Fig Trials for the next couple of years

I know I said I would buy any more figs but it's a bad addiction. Sometimes I forget how many figs I actually buy throughout the year.

New varieties that I bought in 2017 that I will trial for 2018 or whenever they bear fruit. Stay tuned for a lot more reviews.
