Green Ischia? It is a good fig, just replace the label with the correct one and have a good night sleep :)

Best Brown Turkey in the world is one that is mis-labeled. Looks like a winner.

Thanks everyone. I am letting the next one ripen longer. Very rain tolerant. Maybe not a common fig but probably a ischia.
