Thanks Gelu!
Thanks Martin!
Now I am positive that my plant is RdB.
Same lief shape and general look .
Some differences in figs....but that is first year bearing for my plant and my climate is different.We have not seen rain for 40 days.... 

The first figs I had from my RdB this year were more elongated then they started to get more round just to add as a note.

only one fig that i got off the tree this yr was rather round. then it hit me.. "Ronde" de Bordeaux.

Your pics don't look like true RDB, shape and color seem off, it even looks a little too large to me. It wouldn't hurt to go back to your seller and ask if he/she knows the source. For your sake, I hope I'm wrong, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Thanks for the comment BLB!
I bought  this fig 2 years ago from french nursery (not Baud).This nursery is no more on internet.
RdB or not RdB,i will keep this fig,because is early and gut testing ...but found a picture today that match perfectly my fig.So, maybe is RdB after all.
