Hello everyone. I am a new member of the forum but have been reading many of the posts. I think this is a great site and am looking forward to learning about figs as I am new. I purchased an JH Adriatic cutting recently based on the posts and hope it turns out well. A friend asked me if I would like some figs from his trees last year. They were awesome and he gave me a cutting. There are a few figs on it now (about 8), but I have not been able to identify it. I am hopeful that someone on the forum would be able to help with this. Thank you, Max

With the limited info, and my limited ability to identify any fig tree, I'm going with Peter's Honey !!

By Jove, I am looking up Peter's Honey and it is looking like you may be right!
Thank you.
Also, yep, some people like quarters for units of measurement, I like my Negra Modelos. ;)

looking at the leaves and the shape of the fig, it remind me of my Paradiso Gene. but the pulp color is different. i haven't had Peter's Honey to know if that's what it is. welcome to the forum :)
