Those two pics don't look to be from the same tree. They are very different shapes. I believe the first one might be Livano Greek. I saw a similar same pic on ebay about 6 months or so ago. No clue on the round one. Here's my previous post about Livano.http://figs4funforum.websitetoolbox.com/post/what-a-beautiful-fig-6653335?pid=1280586253#post1280586253 Here's a current ebay about it, but not the same image. but looks similar.http://www.ebay.ca/itm/LIVANO-Greek-Rooted-Fig-cutting-1-1-2-yrs-old-/111320134261

Yeah.. i'd love to have one of those, but not willing to buy one internationally. I don't know anyone in the US that has it.
