"Vancouver" found variety.  As noted before, possibly Brunswick/Magnolia/Dalmation.  Pruned to spurs of 1-2 buds of last year's growth.  These may actually be spurs of the 2nd part of last years growth, that responded to pinching by branching.  In most cases, I removed 6 inches to one foot of growth.  I could not help but leave a couple of embryo figs, despite thinking that the breba crop did not amount to much.  Live and learn.  I'm aiming for a 'bowl' shaped tree with an open center.

Lattarula/White Marseilles etc.  this is also pruned to spurs, more or less.  The aim here is for a more "fan-like" arrangement since this tree is near the house.
All of the fig trees got a couple of big handfulls of crushed eggshells for calcium, scattered on the ground.
