I've been growing this fig for about 4 years. I got it from a friend who bought it in Central NJ many many years ago from a place called Coraddo's. It will survive Central Jersey winters but die to the ground. It needs to be grown in a pot or protected to fruit. It has a red eye when immature and it is a closed eye. A nice tasting fig too. I would say it is a little reddish in color, not sure if that will show on the pic. Often the fruit is not uniform in color on the outside with light and dark areas of the skin. Any ideas???
