Hi, this is called Mavra Sika purchased earlier this season from Bass.
Next season i may get to taste a couple figs.  ; )

This is a very interestin fig Martin.

We got one from Bass about a month ago or so, it's in ground, and looking good so far.  Can't wait to get a few figs too, hopefully next season.

Great pictures.  Thanks.

Martin, it's growing nicely. 

Hi Bass.  The Mavra Sika was a great find and we are very happy to be growing one.  It's a beautiful fig and it looks great tasting as well.  Ours is doing well here and we hope to have a few figs next year.

Hope you are well my friend, and best wishes to all.
