Hello everyone! Long time since I posted! I had so much work moving inground plants to different spots without killing them and lost a a number of plants due to the summer heat last year. I have finally got my Egyptian fig to ripen one fig and I forgot to test if it was pollinated because the other figs did not ripen yet even older ones are sitting. The fig tasted like a typical dark fig that we get from Turkey (ill post its picture in a reply) but sweeter and softer with a thinner skin and some sugary taste. Here are some pictures in the attachments Attached Images 20160304_122448-600x1067.jpg (254.70 KB, 17 views) 20160222_094601-600x600.jpg (97.34 KB, 16 views) 20160222_094801-600x600.jpg (38.88 KB, 17 views) 20160222_094811-600x600.jpg (36.93 KB, 18 views) 20160222_094850-600x600.jpg (59.47 KB, 19 views) 20160222_095000-600x600.jpg (97.22 KB, 17 views) __________________ Weather: Winter: 10C+ Summer: 42C+ Growing: Syrian Unk., Atreano, Egyptian Unk., Lebanese Unk., Col de dame Gris, Beall, Negronne, Ronde de bordeaux, Brogiotto Bianco Wish List: Panache.

The dark fig taste is similar to this Turkish variety in the attachments Attached Images in-figs-highly-nutritious-ingredients-2-38899-dry5.jpg (43.02 KB, 6 views) __________________ Weather: Winter: 10C+ Summer: 42C+ Growing: Syrian Unk., Atreano, Egyptian Unk., Lebanese Unk., Col de dame Gris, Beall, Negronne, Ronde de bordeaux, Brogiotto Bianco Wish List: Panache.

Ehhh, see if your next fig has hollow seeds, if there is nothing in the middle of the seed and its ripe it's self pollinating, or San Pedro depending on which time you test it __________________ Figs: Conadria and Little Ruby

Search my "My first pollinated syrian" post where I found a pollinated fig and I even grew the seeds but they died in 2015's summer heat sadly. So, any ideas of the variety? __________________ Weather: Winter: 10C+ Summer: 42C+ Growing: Syrian Unk., Atreano, Egyptian Unk., Lebanese Unk., Col de dame Gris, Beall, Negronne, Ronde de bordeaux, Brogiotto Bianco Wish List: Panache.

So, any ideas of the variety? im afraid there is more than 1,500 kinds of figs, and a lot of them are purple, my guess is black mission or black maederia, but I'm just guessing __________________ Figs: Conadria and Little Ruby

I hope it gets identified with someone who has it too.
