I wanted to show my little harvest of figs after an historical heatwave here, six days above 80°F/26,6°C with a maximum of 83°F/28°C last sunday.
The weather has been very weird this year, with a very hot spring to start, april was 10°F/5°C higher than average, very sunny! Summer was lousy, very cool, grey and wet. And now this incredible heatwave! 100 years old heat records were exploded by 10°F/5°C. Some places on the north coast of Brittany recorded 87°F/30,8°C the first of october where usually they barely get 70°F/20°C in high summer!!!
Ronde de Bordeaux was good, sweet and figgy, Osborne was watery and tasteless just a bit sweet. The best one was Grise de Saint Jean, subtle, sweet and figgy.
Here are some pics of my harvest
