I hear there might be some Neverella fig scion at the WCFS Tahoma Chapter scion exchange on 3/1 in Spanaway.

I've heard/seen several sources that say Negronne and Violet de Bordeaux are the same tree.

Are yours different from one another?

I have also heard that Negronne and Violet De Bordeaux are the same. But I have two trees, and one was sold to me as 'Gurney's dwarf'. It has mahogany dark brown figs and they are fewer but larger than Violet DE Bordeaux. I believe from looking at pics online that this is Negronne.
The other Violet DE Bordeaux makes a lot more smaller figs, and is a smaller tree overall.
All I am sure of is that these are two different varieties.
