Cucchiano Red Unknown

This is a childhood fig I remember eating during my infancy in Cucchiano Calabria.



I am happy to report that it is doing well in Florida's hot humid climate. It is prolific, close-eyed and very good tasting. I believe it is a variant of Sicilian Red.
Apologies for the poor picture quality.

Looks great, I agree, very similar to Sal Corleone aka Sicilian Red or so some say. If it is the same or similar, they should be very sweet .

Looks like my Aldo's Palermo Red which is very prolific and figs/leaves look the same.

The inside looks nice and juicy. Thanks for sharing.

OK, pass that one around.

Nice
