Fig ID Help

This fig came from cuttings from my parents home where I grew up. My mom always called it an everbearing. Tree rather small compared to Celeste. Figs are Green/Yellow when ripe and ripens here about a month after Celeste last week July through August. It always has lot of figs still on it when it frosts here usually late November. My mom was from Los Angeles, so could have come from there. In dry years it's delicous fresh, if used for preserves, cooks apart into jam. In wet years, it splits & sours really bad and has little flavor. These pictures were taken Aug. 1 when the figs were good. I watered it a little because we were in a drought and left the hose running all night, so they started splitting. Dumb Me! In reseraching my best guess is an Adriatic , Strawberry, or Conandria maybe. Anyway ,I hope these load, as I've not tried this before.

Can't help ya on the ID thing.

Well I see it worked, but I should have taken the pictures close up. Too late for this year, but if anyone can make any sense of these pictures, please let me know.

Cecil, I figured if you could do it, anybody could figure it out! GOTCHA!

Cecil, after I thought about what I said above, I hope I didn't come across rude. I was just joking around and hope you know that! Tim
