golden celeste??? 's

Can someone tell me if the golden celeste from ucd is the same as the Lsu champagne/golden celeste?

It is Alma, as far as I can tell. The leaves are the same and both dropped all their fruit last season here.

I've never heard of any of the Celeste's being referred to as Alma. I have both from Paradise Nursery. Totally different fig in shape, size, color and taste.

Thanks ya'll, I'll just wait and see.
