Pingo De Mel

An old brand but it's worth having.
Every fig that fully ripen, most of them have the so called honey drop.
Here are some pics of the figs ripen on tree for sharing..:)

Thanks Vito.

Thanks for sharing. What a gorgeous looking fig! I wonder how the taste compares to other yellow figs like Cajun Gold, LSU Gold, Sefrawi, Long Yellow/Yellow Long Neck, Jurupa and Golden Riverside. Since they're yellow, you would think they all are honey flavored figs but that doesn't have to be the case. 

Looks like your tree loves it's environment. Congratulations on your success! Enjoy every bit of it. :)

Figs have the prettiest interiors, this one included.

Great pictures, congratulations it looks delish.

Thanks..
When allowed to fully ripen and let the skin wrinkle a bit the taste is just superb, delicious and so very sweet.
It's one of the sweetest figs that I've tasted.
To me this is definitely a keeper.

so beautiful  looks like something in a art exhibition.

Ansolutely beautiful...

I haven't seen that reddish amber interior before. The contrast with the yellow skin is amazing. Out of curiosity, is there any other flavor note besides the sweetness?

Thanks Smyfigs.
Hi Dan,
When it comes to flavor honestly I always get myself confuse. Just don't know
 as to what kind of taste to equate with..the only thing I could say for this fig is very sweet and delicious. :)

That is absolutely fantastic looking fig (inside and out) and a perfectly healthy tree. It looks different than other pictures of Pingo De Mel, lighter yellow rather than green yellow on the outside and more amber / less red on the inside

I would love to get some a cutting of this cultivar if or when you have them available. I am in California so they don't always make it through. The climate here is probably a lot drier than Malaysia and colder in the winter (down to -5C a few times a year ~2 to 5 times). If any members have this cultivar and are closer, please PM or email

Thanks

Simon
