I was wonder what I can tell from this "unknown" unripe fig and leaves.  Any educated guesses? Mother tree is a street tree in Los Angeles and has a good number of "brebas" on it that look like they will ripen on the early side.  I don't think it is a caprifig or seedling, but the interior looks kind of like some caprifigs I have seen.  I'll check this tree in a month or 2 and will open up another fig then; I suspect it will tell me a lot more, especially if a bunch of fig wasps fly out! 

I'm sure someone has done this already...but it would be cool (and informative) to see weekly pictures tracking the development of a couple varieties of edible figs from figlet to "ripe".

 

 

Definitely Ficus carica. Hard to say more without ripe fruit.

I'll post ripe fruit pics....eventually.

Thanks,

bent,
Thank you very much for showing the above pictures .
I see a number of short style gall flowers on your fig cutaway. A sizable layer of male flowers can also be seen under the fig eye.
This could indicate that this fruit is a non-edible fig, probably a Profichi, maturing through its correct timing for the area where it was located . (March to June) --just like any breba crop
In doubt, you may,  using a good lens, inspect those gall flowers and try to see through their translucid shell the contours of a living wasp larvae inside... if you manage to see it, then you are  in the presence of a caprifig

This paper is quite good reading on the subject and  will help you to understand what Aim saying
