They look so good:)    

um...black pearl of malta !

The inside of that fig looks really good .

That is a monument to a fig!

Black Pearl is a great name.

Congrats on that awesome looking fig.
How about a simple name like Black Zabbar.

Good work and congratulations. I vote color with origin also, Black Zabbar.

Black Zabbar sounds like it fits that fig.

I think you should name it, "Sending it to my Ohio neighbor to the South" :-D  It's a beautiful fig.

Molto Malta (Great Maltese) will be my choice.

I think if you are sending it to your Ohio neighbor to the south, it gets way-laid about halfway there.

Very good looking fig

Very good looking fig, keep us updated on this one. Thanks for sharing!

incredible looking fig

The pulp looks really tasty indeed.  The skin looks very thin.  Do you have any idea how it does in rain?

It will only get better in time....so get ready!  You have been blessed!

Nice work!

Marius, Beautiful fig. I would be interested in it's rain tolerance also. Keep us posted on this one.

Growers choice on the name.  That has to be one of the best looking figs ever.  Way to go.
