As I got into figs, now I really need to know what I have, this is from a 20 year old tree which survived Sandy, submerged in 4 feet of saltwater, then it survived two harsh winters that killed the main trunks. After properly covering it and feeding it well, this tree is producing big delicious figs again.  I would also share clippings or even plants to people.


 
 

looks like my Italian Honey
 
   

Does it taste refreshing, but not that sweet, with a nutty seed crunch?

Hi Peter

This is 'Figo Branco' from Madeira Islands....same origins as BM

 
Time ago there was a lot of talk about it

This is pretty cool news! Two crops, the first are enormous. The taste is not too sweet, definitely has a bit of a crunch. Not very moist or honey like. The eye is pretty tight.

I think it looks like the fig Francisco posted.

I do have two potted peters honey, the leaves are definitely different from them.

Wow, survived submerged in saltwer AND two harsh winters? Thats some tree! Pretty figs!

I think Dave nailed it. Italian Honey, very popular variety been around many years.

This was the tree a few years before we were hit with Sandy, it was about 15 feet tall and full of figs, twice a year.
