These photos take in June in Lenato, Italy.
They have male flowers, but there is no fig wasp inside.
I suppose that in June, they should have wasp in caprifig.
Yes, that should be a Profichi crop and the figs show good quality with plenty of full galls and stamen with pollenSome galls are already wide open indicating that the insects (probably males) have already leftOther insects can be seen still inside intact galls waiting for help from male wasps to break the capsule skin, fecundate and let them go.What exact date in June did you see this ?Where exactly is this place - Lenato- ?Francisco
Is possible the male Fruit to eat? How is the taste? Both women Fruit Typs possible to eat? In what Times comes what Fruit Type? All together?
Thank you Francisco
Sorry I forgot date. Actually take photo on 25/5/2016 at Lonato, Verona in Italy
If wasp went out, why the pollen so young. I try to loot at gall and do not see any wasp. the eye is also close.
Hi Paul
I do not think caprifig is edible, I just wonder where is fig wasp
Persistent caprifigs are edible :) But this is not that one... Can be eaten but it has a slight cotton taste :D
Thank you helike13
I suppose they are not produce sugar inside friut
But good for health :)
My new Variity Kunduz must be normal a Caprifig, but the first Fruit was normal so as From persistent female Plant and with very good taste. Maybe later other Flower other or that was from two Hybrid Caprifig Mother and Father and is was a persistent female Figplant.
This information is very useful for newcomer in caprifig
