Oh yes, it was as good as it looks!

That looks delicious. Did you lick the knife blade? I would not have lost a drop of it!

Ha!  I most certainly did.  I always do!  I'm going to get my tongue sliced one of these days...

Oh my!

Very jammy, very nice. ;) my wife just got us a Figo Preto from Tyro (Paul), he shipped it very well, and it is bouncing back nicely...

Only about three years before I can taste it, but it will be worth the wait. Nice to see a non-caprified fig live to it's reputation.

Thanks, everyone.
Lewi, I bet you get figs in 2 years.  Shoot, you may even see a couple next year.  I believe I tasted my first Preto the 2nd year here in zone 7.  No greenhouse at the time either.

It looks delicious! Hope mine will give some in my greenhouse soon!

Hey Frank, Outstanding Fig and video! Could even hear the knife slicing it. Very jammy and beautiful inside. Keep 'em coming!

Quite likely...I dont eat the fruit for about 3 years due to the biblical commandment of Orlah. I try to pinch them, but I dont always get them all.

It's not tree years so the time is actually 2 years 30 days after this they are not considered forbidden fruit. So you may be holding out on good figs. !!

Ha. Love it. Depends if you plant before the 16th of Av, in order to count as it's first year. or if the tree was bare root, or in a container. It was not my intent to discuss Torah Topics, so I simplified matters. PM sent.

Looking yummy Frank.
