Greenfig,

Thanks. If I may, I would reccomend you to try and dowload 1901 Gustav Eisen's book:
THE FIG: ITS HISTORY, CULTURE, AND CURING WITH A DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUE.....etc.
Around pages 100 to 110... you have a very well laid down description of the caprifigs/wasps, their typical 3 crops and interaction with all other figs. Very good information on those writtings from one of the US  'FigFoundingFathers'.
Hope to send you later today pictures showing what local caprifigs look like.

Here the pictures to show what the average Caprifig look like now.
The new generation of young Profichi (the green glossy smaller fruit) shooting up now from last year's wood. The dark bigger figs are the winter crop od Mamme.
