I would never know until later this summer I can take photos of these figs. They brought these figs straight from Italy. There are other varieties there some are dark, and one they praised about that makes green with dark red flesh. I just visited Angelo an hour ago, and these figs are forming a nice crop of Brebas.
You know how the naming of varieties are, judging by the confusion of the Paradiso in Italy, I'm not sure if this Triana is the same as joe morle's.

Lovely photos Bass, the last two season's I have been paying close attention to how people with inground trees protect them over the winter and have noticed a few setups like this or they wrap them with burlap but I have noticed most people bury them. I recently bought a house and found someone down the street with a very big inground figtree atleast 10ft tall once I move in I will try and pass by there and talk to the owner and see how he protects that tall tree and find out more about his figs noticed he had quite a few in his greenhouse.

I visited my friend Angelo today and sampled some of these figs. Very sweet and I was amazed by the productivity of these trees. These varieties came from Italy.

This is such a great post and thread Bass - absolutely beautiful trees and very innovative set-up...thank you for sharing this story!! 

Joe, you're welcome. It's always interesting to see how some people get innovative to grow figs. I ate a few figs while there. This was a main crop which is very early in my area.
