Unknown - Possibly Kadota - Guesses?

Greetings All

We purchased a nice potted "Brown Turkey" from Lowes in the spring of this year and have been watching it grow in a large pot on our deck. It leafed out nicely, and put out lots of figs. As we watched this fig tree grow, and watched the figs get larger and larger, we soon realized that this was no BT, but some unkn lemon-yellow skinned fig.

NIce large figs, closed eye, very sweet and almost melony taste. Nice strawberry inside.

So, it's not a BT, not a Peter's Honey based on leaf shape, is it possibly a Kadota?

Hello Mark,
My guess would be Conadria. The five lobed leaf and figs are similar.
Good Luck.

Thanks Pete, i added another picture of justt the leaf. Really nice surprise to taste this unknown!

Conadria, me thinks

My first thought was Brunswick but the new leaf pictures don't look very much like Brunswick leaves.  Conadria seems like a good guess.
