Figs from Turkey

Hi everbody ,
I live in Turkey and we grow figs here as a professional and our country is really rich varieties of figs and so many varieties spread all over the world when our anchestor Ottoman conquered some countries,so especially some cultivars are originated from Turkey.
We have 120 or more varieties of figs here and some unknown local types.I want to share some of my cultivar for you,
Regards from Turkey
Ercan

Hi
All look great!
What varieties are the unlabeled ones? Are these Smyrna or common figs?

Welcome to the forum, Ercan!
Are those beautiful figs named varieties?
I regularly buy Turkish dry figs, they are very high quality fruits.
I am sure everybody will be exited to see you here!

all of these types are labeled and some of them smyrna and some of them common figs .

As with Christian, there is a good chance we may visit friends in Istanbul next year during fig ripening season.  Besides Istanbul itself, can you suggest regions of Turkey that would be interesting to visit in terms of "fig tourism" and generally beautiful scenery?

Welcome to the forum.  Can you identify this fig which is from a tree in Turkey?
