I.D. Please?

I know it is missing the fig cut in half picture and the leaves are from a distance so my apologies....any of the experts have a guess?  







It is the larger figs in the center of the dish


<EDIT>

Now have the inside.....

Looking at the Fruit only it appears to be a Flanders....thats my guess.....Could be a Celeste..????

Added an interior shot of the fig.......they are not my pictures, guess a bird got to this fig.

Mmmm, pine needles and brown grass. Them's good eatin'!

The fig shape and stripes remind me of Beall. Mine even shows a bit of that brown color early on during ripening, but it's mostly gone by the time the fruit is fully ripe. The leaves also don't match what I see on the F4F varietal page, but maybe the tree is still small enough that it isn't putting out it's mature leaf shape. The interior color is in the neighborhood though, minus the chewy bits, of course.

I Love you fig people you are sooo funny  : )

lol Neil:)  It looks good.....I'm not scared of a little bird spit I would have brushed aside the debris and eaten it.   It was sold to her as a VDB which even I knew it wasn't....so trying to ID it for her.  

Leaves are pretty generic, so not much help there. It clearly is not VdB.

Seems to lack skin color, and too juicy for a BT. Does not look like Flanders, at my location, either in color or shape.

I guess the ID is not going to be as easy as I had thought.  

Here is my Flanders w/ unripe fruit for comparison. Plus a pic from last fall that ripened in the sun room.
