That would be a great question for that fig breeder you talked with. Some of the LSU figs were dark-wonder what caprifig O'Rourke used for them?

And would a light caprifig pollinating a dark fig have a chance of giving dark offspring?

O'Rourke used "C1" from UC Riverside.

The fig breeder I met with was not familiar with C1.  He did work with caprifigs from UC Riverside, though.
