ID help please - dark fig with yellow flesh

What was the eye like? Open or tight? I remember q complaint of China White is that the eye points up and is open so it spoils in rain badly.

FigFan (and SuperMario) your fig resembles the Sao Luis

Hello!

After I saw lampo's pictures of the unpollinated 'Sao Luis' - and the leafs, too - I'm about 90% sure that we have a match! :-)))

Being an non-pollinated fruit might explain why the taste is somewhat "boring", too! (Am I right in this point?)

Thank you ALL!! Thank you the most, Francisco! :-)
And thank you, too, Eli! :-) The link to the pdf was interesting, I give the remaining 10% "sureness" for the ID to 'Zingarello nero' (means that little black cigar??)

Greetings, Kai

Hi,
None of my figs are pollinated (Zone7), and their test is not boring .. or they get the ax.
One needs to select the figs according to the strain and to the growing conditions .
Give the trees some time. I give them 5 years before making a decision .

It does look like the plant is txt ill quite young,as JDSFrance said he waits 5 years,the eat fruit I've tasted has come from mature trees,they take a while to get into their stride
