Large dark at top is a Jolly Tiger, then to the right an unknown sold as Black Madeira which I call White Madeira, then 2 Blanca de Maellas and finally an LSU Tiger. Blanca and White Madeira (think it might actually be CDDB) were excellent, the others good. Attached Images fig_assortment_jolly_tiger_white_madeira,_blanca_de_maella,_tiger.jpg (96.85 KB, 46 views)

Nice! Thank goodness for the last few weeks of hot weather. Congratulations, Barry. Hope you're getting plenty of them ripening. __________________ Rui Southeast CT, zone 6B

I just joined this forum and I don't see how you post a question. __________________ how tall does a salce fig grow? I'm in zone 7 (tho we had a zone 4 winter last) and just bought the salce (had figs on it so I got a sample before I put my money down-excellent taste). do I need to mulch it for winter?

Rui, Yes thanks finally their ripening all over the yard now, been coming in a few at a time for weeks. Today was the first time I've posted pics. I thought folks might want to see Jolly Tiger and LSU Tiger side by side. The light figs here won the day for flavor though. Dirtdigger, looks like you figured it out, welcome to the forum

Thanks for posting, Barry. How do you describe the JT taste? Do you have a photo of the inside? I have not seen many of those around. __________________ wish list: Violeta, Calderona. USDA z 10a, SoCal

Larger is Jolly Tiger, smaller is LSU Tiger, LSU Tiger is very sweet, JT is just ok flavor wise, sweet and mildly figgy, a step up from your average Brown Turkey. It's a good sized fig though Attached Images jolly_tiger_and_tiger_cut_open.jpg (128.70 KB, 7 views)
