Help identifying fig - Photos

Greetings from Germany!

A friend of mine has a fig tree wich fares very well in cold temperatures here, going down to -15C, but on average -5C during winter.

I was researching which fig tree this could be. I thought it could be either Dalmatie or Precoce de Dalmatie, because the figs have green skin when mature.

But, Dalmatie and Precoce de Dalmatie seem to be red inside, while our fig here has green skin and is white/very slightly rosy inside. It is very sugary at this stage you see in the images. Skin is very delicate, we can open the fruit without cutting it.

Size is big, the size of the palm of a hand, like this image here http://feigen.bueschken.com/images/bilder/Dalmatie.JPG from a Dalmatie fig.

Tree is about 4 meters high.

Does anybody knows what kind of fig is this?

I post images, please any advice is welcome!

Welcome to the forum!  Leaf photos would help in identifying the tree.

Leaf would help some.  A wild guess would be Desert King.  Mine always ripen in May/June timeframe.
