A week, ten days separate their full ripening.
Both delicious figs, our top of the scale.
They are  both Smyrna .

Francisco, Great pictures as usual and thanks for sharing.

Francisco, You have no mercy, man….:)

you know, maybe it's worth it to grow male figs and hand pollinate Smyrna figs in pots, what do y'all say?

I say worth it!

thanks for posting. i just love pictures of fruit.

Absolutely mouthwatering.............

Impressive!
Hand pollination? Which 1-2-3-4-5 trees would you pollinate? Francisco has at least 10 trees that we all need. That would be incredibly labor intensive. What if a mocking bird pecks a whole in it. Poof. Mushroom cloud and thne headline..JD Eradicates Mocking Bird Population in 8B.

Warm thanks to all of you for looking at those pictures.

On the question of hand pollination , I have made enough suggestions in the past year and ... and I am almost sure that some day one of you will show pictures to this forum and tell us...I did it!!
