Hello everyone,
These are pictures of a tree my sister found last summer. I'm trying to identify it, and after reading about some varieties from Israel (where I live), I suspect that this is Sbayi.
I ate a fig or two from this tree. They were pretty good, but not fully ripe. I don't have better pictures of the leaves or the inside of the fruit, but I was hoping that someone might be able to confirm that this is indeed Sbayi.

I did get some cuttings and grafted them on my useless caprifig about a month ago. They are still green, which bodes well, but only spring will tell if I was successful :)

Nice pics! Forum members elin and kassoum are from Israel, maybe they can help?

Only reference I know "The Sbayi, which means "spotted" in Arabic, is the second main crop fig in Israel. It was first described by Grasovsky and Weitz in 1932.(The purple ribs are a distinguishing characteristic.) It is sweet and good for fresh consumption. Israeli experts consider it second only to Khurtmani in taste, aroma, and quality in Israel. It has never been imported into the United States."

There is one pix which is from here.

Jon,
I looked through the link you included and have not noticed a reference to the Shar Israel.
Does it have a different name, in Arabic or Hebrew?

Unknown.

This is the Sbayi that I grow. It looks somewhat similar. 
Do you have a picture of the pulp?

Jon,
Yes, this is exactly what I read. It's the part about the purple ribs that really fits. In that article there's also a pic of figs that look somewhat like these, but the quality isn't very good.

Bass,
sorry, I have no picture of the pulp. I also don't remember what it looks like. Your fig looks different from the outside, but maybe it's because it had more time to ripen. Does your fig looks like the ones I posted during the ripening process?

Hi Shur it is a sBayi , mazal tov youv got a great fig to start with...
Found this good picture on flickr

Sbayi is suppose to have these stripes from what I've read.. and Eli showing a very close photo to your figs... 

OK, thanks everyone!
Now I really hope my grafts take...
