Al. Blue looks like BT but with enormous yield of breba, more then any BT i ever see.
Here is some pictures of Al Blue.

Sounds like someone coming up with their own names for fig trees.  Those old timers can get pretty creative sometimes.  Anything to captivate an audience ;)

That Al Blue is not Brown Turkey.
I had one ,I got it from Texas and it came under Black Mission name.
As you can see it is full inside not with a cavity like Brown T.
If you live in the south with long Summers Buy it,otherwise do not because it needs a long Summer to ripe those huge fruits.

Hi Jason maybe you're right, but I saw that Al Blue is much more fertile than BT. For Brown Greek  he says that he got cuttings from some Greeks man who brought them in his socks from the Greek some 20 years ago.

Eden....

Go for it!  You live in Georgia, so you will be able to ripen those huge figs.

Show us pictures, and let us know how you are doing.  Welcome to this forum.

I agree with Herman that it's not BT, but I stand firm that this guy is making up names for figs ;)  I've met more than my fair share in the SE through Craigslist ads many years ago.  You'd be amazed.

That is an interesting looking fig.  Don't have a clue what it is.  Doesn't look very tasty to me, but looks can be deceiving.

The Brown Greek true to the name.  It's not the same as BT.  BG ripens late and figs are a bit larger than Southeastern BT.  Dalton sells them.  I got 2 of them in 25 gallon pots with figs on.

At the time of my visit to so called "fig man" in Tn I took some pictures of his figs in his orchard.
Here is some varaieties that he have:
BEERS BLACK (VdB)
ADRIATIC
JURUPA
ALMA
CANADRIA
GENOA
SAN PIETRO
FLANDERS
ARMENIAN
and so on.

From your information, that same Michael (F--------d) lived near Harrison Bay, Tn on the lake and indeed has a nice fig orchard and sells many of his figs to the local restaurants.  His trees are large and healthy.  He irrigates from the lake, so no chloride and many of his trees are shaded by tall pines and being on the lake, he dodges the cold winters.  His location in Tessessee is about as ideal as you can get in our zone.  I bought several fig trees in pots from him.  I got Ken, Kennedy, Flanders, Green and Brown Greek varieties, Jerupa and tried to buy a small fig that he called Lovengen. The names of the figs that the grows are what the donors told him when he bought them.  The trees were healthy when I bought them but they were planted in the ground too young.  I still have in pots, Brown Greek and Flanders.  He is a knowledgeable and capable grower and not a scam artist.  The day I was there several years ago, I ate about 30 fresh figs from about that many varieties and he sold some out of his fridge that were in egg cartons.

Yes it is. A very good man, I spent about an hour and a half with him talking about figs and trying out different varieties of figs. For your information his figs are no longer in the shade, his property was hit by a tornado 3 months ago and destroyed most of the pine trees around his house and caused damage to his house to.
