Lots of figs this year. Many have already ripened. Some of these are ripe, some aren't. Still picking though. Enjoy the pics.

Man I think you found your calling...I'm seeing greeting cards, calendar, stock photos, the list just goes on. Works of art on many levels.

Nice! Did any of the Panachee ripen for you? I have a few that just started to swell. Hoping they ripen before the cold weather sets in.

Congratulations! If you had an HID set up in your basement you could probably ripen all of those. :)

Beautiful work Scot. Thanks for sharing. I second Don, they can make very nice collection package of Greeting Cards, Thank you notes or Message notes (the type that has faint pics in background and note lines on top layer).

Got me wondering, has anyone run across any figs whose leaves change a different color than yellow in the fall?

Hi trif1010, Congrats ! That's a beautiful collection especially in a Zone5. I'm trying the panache adventure as well. Let's see if I can get some next year !

Awesome. Those are some great fig shots, appreciate your sharing. Greeting cards or prints wouldn't be a bad idea!
Edit:
GregMartin, I thought the pretty colors of deciduous trees of Autumn in North America came from the mineral content, namely iron. It would be interesting if a member had some different colors, what their mix and feed might be.

Nice to see all those varieties with figs still on the plants. Looking a them made me feel a bit cold, might have to find my jacket.
