Another fig that has impressed me, the Lampeira Branca, ripened its 1st fig today, and it was fantastic. The tree is in a 15 gallon pot, and was started from a cutting a year and a half ago, that I got at the CRFG scion exchange. It is apparently the one from Prusch Park, in San Jose. The young tree has set a large crop, and is quite healthy. The large, lovely, greenish yellow fruit, develop some violet specks as they ripen. The flavor is wonderful and lasting on the palate. Sweet, thin skin, light seed crunch, jammy and with faint hints of berry. I can't wait to try more.
 
 
 
 

Looks great!  Does it need the wasp?

Nice fig Gary. A pretty fruit no matter the location and in your grounds it seems quite happy!
Congratulations

In Portugal, tech. speaking,  Lampa Branca belongs to the 'CACHOPEIRO' group of figs -biferous-
Cachopeiros produce two crops (Breba and Main) being both parthenocarpic.
This to differentiate from the San Pedro's where Brebas are parthenocarpic and Main's are smyrnoids
Common are uniferous and parthenocarpic.
Smyrna are uniferous and require pollination to set fruit

Nice fig, Gary.

Usually there is some confusion between Lampa Preta and Lampa Branca. By their name it seems they are just the same type of figs with a good first crop of big Black and White Figs, but they really belong to 2 different groups, as Francisco says.

 

Lampa Preta second crop needs caprification (San Pedro's group) and Lampa Branca doesn't.
This one is a fig with 2 crops that we include in the Cachopeiro group to distinguish from figs that only have one crop - Comum (common) or Vindimo Group.
And of course there is also the Smyrna group - figs that produce only one crop that needs caprification.

The four groups of edible figs we consider over here (the 5th being the caprifigs):
     

Be aware that there may be a few classification errors in these groups - for instance "3 num prato" appears twice in different groups.
