This is a first year plant, I was able to ripen one fig recently and there are about 3 more fruits that will probably ripen in September. The fruit had a rich, earthy flavor but it is probably too early to write a fully descriptive profile. This is an early ripener.

Looks very nice!
It is really tempting to add to my wish list but is it going to be better than a Strawberry Verte/ JH couple?
Probably it is best to plant it in the ground to unleash the full potential!

Igor this is actually supposed to be a dark (or darker) fig, though it is not really showing yet. I would not compare it to an Adriatic-type fig. It is a worthy addition to my collection.
