Unknown dark fig, ID please

Hi,
I am hoping that someone can ID this unknown dark fig I found here in Salt Lake City. I found it two years ago and even the extremely cold winter we had before the last one didn't do any damage to this tree. It is completely unprotected. It tasted really good for a dark fig that is.

I forgot to mention, the fig shown is a breba fig.

Nice find looks like a great fig.I hope someone helps you out with It's ID.

Hey neighbor! I live out in Idaho! Nampa! Holy moly this is nice to see someone growing figs in my area. I going to guess Celeste fig :-)

looks like a chicago hardy to me ........

 

Tom,

How large a breba crop is it producing? How old is the tree? What is the status of the main crop? Off hand, It looks like Celeste.

Do the eyes of the fruit turn red much before the rest of the fig?


My HC has an closed eye ?
