yes, for a brown fig, Brunswick is hard to beat! It has a very rich flavor. But too much rain can really make the fig like just like a flower. I plan to put mine in self watering pots next year.

Fully agreed with Dennis on Brunswick excellence. In fact there is a large tree growing in a rental house in Vancouver and this tree produces abundantly. Well, for the season thus far in my zone this year, Brunswick ripe figs has been outstanding in taste - particulary its more pronounced richness.
