Is my "Alma" a Kadota?

It was over ten years ago that I bought a fig tree labeled "Alma" while vacationing on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.  However, I have recently seen pictures of Kadota figs that look an awful lot like my "Alma" figs.  Can someone post pictures comparing the two varieties?  I don't have the ability to post pictures.  God bless.

Doesn't Alma take on the peachy blush when ripe?

I don't have either, but aren't the leaves entirely different between the two varieties? I would look on the varietal page and click on more photosthen look at pics of leaves.

A kadota is pure yellow!  Trust me.  The birds got it before me, but this will stop!  Got me a BB Gun!

How about the difference in the leaves?

Go to Jon's site, and look at the variety list.

Alma has decurrent leaf bases.
