Hello folks,

Earlier in April I bought a fig tree locally from someone who has too many.  It had two good size brebas on the tree (he has a greenhouse, the danger of frost is early May where I am). The color of the figs were very light green.  Today I harvested one of them because it drooped over. 

Looking at the photos, can you tell me what variety it is?  (I was told that it was a desert king, but is it?).

I am super excited today because finally I tasted a tree ripen fig and the taste was just incredible!    
   

The this fig opened its eye in the last week or so.

Thanks.

Oops..forgot to include photos of the leaves.

   

This is a photo of the same fig one week earlier:

Hi Bill,

Congrats on tasting your first homegrown fig! :)

It isn't desert king as they are green exterior and reddish pulp. I'm not sure what variety it might be but one thing I can tell you for sure if you would have waited at least another 5-7 days before picking it the taste would have been exponentially better :). You want that white meaty part to start getting translucent and the centre to get really juicy.

It is not Desert king, and it looks like some kind of "Brown Turkey".
Anyway, very nice fig.
