Not pictured, I tasted the first 'ever' figs from the Lattarula and King trees. Each had a different flavor, both sweet, juicy, 'bright' flavors. Lattarula was yellow-ish with a tan center, and King was green with a red center.
Petite Negri, Black with dark red center, sweet and rich flavor.
The Petite negri tree is kept to 7 feet tall by pruning, although it is marketed as 'dwarf'.
"Vancouver", which was grown from a cutting from an unidentified tree, likely "Brunswick", bore 5 large juicy figs. Brown color, inside is golden.
Yum!
Those figs look amazing! When I was a kid, my grandfather planted a fig tree for me, and I remember when it matured and how great the figs tasted...thanks for posting this. I brought back memories :). I wanted to share something really quick, since I'm now thinking about food.
