I am leaning toward the two large ones were brebas,but not sure ,it was very good,i thought it resembled a good ripe sal's el in taste .but much larger I am guessing the two large figs were 60+ grams or so ,I need to get a scale too. the tree is in a four gallon  planter .i was gifted it by Ed Boone another member .around  late april or so ,it has grown 3 feet since then. i do have a air layer on it, on a sucker and one of the large fig came from that branch.it  is 6 foot tall now total

The brebas would be the figs that developed on last year's wood.  Growing below the leaf stems.
Main crop figs grow on new branch in-between the leaf stems.  

Your 4th photo shows 4 green main crop figs.

Is this a cold hardy variety? I've never heard of it. I know Sals EL but is it just as cold hardy?
