This is my first fig EVER that is ripening.  It was sold to me as a celeste on discount at an Agway.  It definitely has a dropping problem.  It had 13 figs and its now down to 2.  But they all dropped at once pretty close to transplanting.  Im thinking it may be a Pastillere, but your thoughts are appreciated as to what it could be.

Way to go.May you be blessed with many more enjoy.

Always exciting to get your first fig!! Congratulations and may you have many more for years to come! My guess based on the size is Celeste.

Now all I need to do is get the ripening just right and keep the birds away

I think it is'nt a pastiliere because this fig hasn't got breba.
I don't know what fig is it.

Heartiest Congrats.  It feels really good, isn't it?

Congratulations!!!

I picked her today. SUPER sweet. No crunch only a hint of figgyness

Enjoy it and feel the addiction grow in you Tim 

Tim....

You realize that you are finished.  Now, you are hooked, and the quest for more varieties begins.

Enjoy the fruits of your efforts...a gift from God.

Frank,

Im already over 30 trees...

That is a lot for the first year wow. You are definitely fig addicted.

Tim...

If I had the space, my fig jones would be rampant.  Only restrictive circumstances, keeps me in check.

Good growing luck.

I had purchased 4 trees from uncle Luigi in RI and I was able to split those into 8. Plus I'm air layering one that's in a wishbone shape so I'll end up with 10 trees just from that visit. 

And this number will fluctuate wildly. Ive got some stunted fmv trees that im going to either give away or throw in my mulch pile  I've got 11 in ground already. I'm sure some won't make it over the winter. If I can end up with 15 varieties that like my soil and my winters I'll be a happy guy
