Mystery fig ID help please...

Hi all,

I just picked this fig up at Exotica...it was the last one of its type and had no tag.  I really liked the leaves.  Any help would be appreciated...

Adam,
Can't really tell without seeing the ripe fruit but the leaves of the second image look like Celeste. That's no guarantee it is. Ask the nursery what varieties they sell and you can narrow it down from there.

Thanks very much....I will ask the nursery...I will also post pics of the fruit when ripe....

Thanks for your input Dan....I don't think it is a Celeste either, but I know fig leaves can look different under different growing conditions....i'll post pics of the ripe fruit when available....in a month or so?? (guessing)  it does look similar to the pic of montreal fig's post....interesting  :)
