Hi my friends,
Thank you for looking at this great fig and telling how you like it.
Belmandil, being in the Smyrna family is much influenced by the timing of its caprification, which always should happen during the second forth night of June...the earlier the better
On some areas these figs are really large, its pulp always very much full and red/carmin, cracking the multicolored skin of the fig in nice patterns.
Bob, Thank you for the compliment. Yes, there are many good ( and bad) things around.
About moving, I can only say...if you are a rich man , it can be done very quickly and you shall not have to worry with bad weather, lack of wasps, copied Port (!?), snow etc..
JD, Yes, right, those seeds add to the texture with a pleasant and agreeable tasty flavor once you grind them and mix with the honey and the pulp of the fruit. All those seeds act as minute sweet almonds.
these seeds are full with ant edible kernel, which if you like can propagate new figs,
You feel all this (better in my opinion) when you chew a couple of dry Belmont's.
