A few years ago, my neighbors gave me a sad, spindly, almost-dead fig tree. It had been a gift that they didn't really care for, and it didn't have any identifying tags.
I'm growing this fig in the San Francisco Bay Area. It produces two crops a year. I assume it's a pretty common variety. My guess, based on nothing at all, is that its a Mission fig. I reckon that's the most common fig sold in stores around here.
The fruit needs to be super-ripe before it's ready. When fully ripe, the fruit is very flavorful, with an astonishing flavor of -- among other things -- toasted coconut.
Any thoughts?
