Sequoia Fig and Politics

Sequoia is a large fig developed by the University of California with funding from an association of California fig growers to find a suitable replacement to the Calimyrna which requires caprification. This fig produces breba and also a main crop suitable for either fresh market or drying. However the University of California patented the variety and this reportedly upset the growers that paid for its development who then essentially boycotted the planting of this variety. We do not sell cuttings of this variety as we don't have a royalty agreement with the UC system.
