I went over to check on my off-site Unk cold hardy. Right now it is growing like a weed! The bush is maybe 12 ft diameter and 4 ft tall (sorry no camera with me). It has 3-4 dozen figs about the diameter of a quarter on it right now. Just guessing these will ripen in another 30 days or so?

I pinched all the new growth back, that was a bunch of pinching! I am thinking that will produce another round of figs on the pinched branches and shoots. If I am right, I should have two distinct crops, the first one in mid to late July, then one from the pinching which should ripen in Sept. As soon as I harvest some I will post pics of leaves and fruit so everyone can help me identify this variety.

I will take cuttings in the fall if anyone wants them. Also, I have three that are growing in pots from cuttings which I am willing to trade the rooted cuttings in the fall. As long as the house stays empty I am going to treat the bush like my own fig. I greeting the neighbors today, they were friendly. They probably think I am the out of town owner or something.

Also, the clump that I transplanted from that bush is growing nicely in my back yard. It will probably give me a dozen figs or so this year:
 

Here is what the fruit looks like now, and about the size of my thumb:

 

You got yourself an English Brown Turkey fig.
When ripe it will be copper colored fruits not green.
Assuming you got long hot Summer ,the fruits are very good tasting,if short cold Summer ,will not ripe properly.
I hope you have chosen a totally full sun position,otherwise it will not work because it ripe very slow.
If in semishade ,it needs to be moved to full sun.
Here is how fruits will look,if ripe properly

Of course it is good for drying,if the climate is proper for ripening,this specimen is good for everything dry, preserves,fresh etc.
It also produces a good crop of Breba,in climates where the embryos do not die during Winter.

The old original bush mine is taken from had a handful of brebas on in this year, even though we had 0F one night in Feb. Unfortunately some critter got to them before I did so I don't know what they tasted like.

Along with Celeste, Brown Turkey is the Gold Standard of fig trees in the USA, or at least in the South. You can never go wrong with it. There are many other wonderful cultivars ( that's one reason we have this forum) but birds and squirrels choose BT 2 to 1 over others!  :-)    Joe

I stopped to inspect my "off site" Unknown cold-hardy the other day (the at an empty house). I impatiently picked an unripe fig to just to look inside. It was all nice and pink. Does that sound like English Brown Turkey?


Also, I as best as I can tell, I should be able to harvest off this bush starting in 2-3 weeks. I can't wait to try them. I will be sure to post some pics
