Anyway, those who have it are hoping to find out if it is a common fig, or needs the wasp. I posted pics of a ripe Sultani on the other topic, and stated that I do not believe I have the wasp in my area as of yet. Well, I have just picked the 2nd ripe fig from this plant, and a 3rd is close to ripening. I tried to separate the seeds to see if they float. They do. They look very undeveloped though, more like embryos. It is a delicious fig, and I'm keeping it. Following are pics, the ripe one I just picked, the other that is almost ripe, and inside look of the ripe one.
