Nice looking figs.

This year i received several M. Pons varieties like Manresa and Planera and i am quite curious to see if they adapt and produce over here without the extra heat of Mallorca.
I grafted some and with luck maybe i find out next year.

Hopefully they are good varieties in your climate. 

Some varieties grow well in difficult climate we can read in M Pons book.
