The ones in the F4F forum header? I'm trying to ID a fig in the neighborhood and it looks a lot like the one on the left and middle fig. It has bright pink/red coloring around an open eye, about 1.3" diameter fruit. Tree is a vigorous grower, lots of semi ripe fruit at this time. __________________ Conrad, SoCal zone 10

Encanto Brown Turkey of Encanto Honey. It is an unknown that was supposed to be a Brown Turkey, and is not. So I added Encanto to the BT name to distinguish it. Then I got tired of explaining it, so changed it to Encanto Honey. Same Fig: All figs in both pictures are the same variety, and all are some ripeness. They has a drop of honey that forms when they are ripe. Still haven't found anyone who can identify it. I have a friend who has one that is very similar, bit still has some differences, when grown side by side. __________________ Encanto Farms Nursery http://encantofarms.com http://figs4fun.com http://webebananas.com "pitangadiego" everywhere

Thanks Jon. Probably not the same, mine has very uniform colors on all figs. How does Encanto Honey rate in it's flavor category? __________________ Conrad, SoCal zone 10
