The traveler Alphonse De Lamartine documented in the 1835 in his book "journey to the east" that there were 32 varieties of figs in Jaffa back than.

From my knowledge fruit export from Jaffa was big to all over the world and untill now the name Jaffa Orange is known.

I wanted to document the fig trees of this old place for sometime now.
They are hidden in alleys and besided old buidings and not very much looked after.
most are of the same two varieties, one is yellow and ripens early and the other is green with brown stripes.


The green fig with brown stripes-
very Late ripener, me and other tourists were having hard time to find ripe ones.
taste- figgy honey rich , no berry at all.
     

The second variety is green with a pink interior
 

Second variety is green but i couldnt find a ripe one.
 
 

And various pictures of the tree's
     
   
Hope it was enjoyable...

prior to growing figs. I would've walked by one without even noticing. however now every where I travel I'm keeping an eye out for figs. It would be amazing to go to the Mediterranean in late summer. definitely on my bucket list.

Lovely pics Eli thanks for sharing.

I know what you mean, I've actually visited Jaffa a few years ago and probably passed hundreds of beautiful trees during my trip to Israel. Jaffa is beautiful btw
