A very nice large fig, not a berry tasting, very productive tree. The skin is edible but it was hardish for me because of the dry climate. Tastes like a mix of watermelon, peach, and strawberry.
At least 8/10, pollinated. The tree is in the ground.

Igor,
Thank you for showing these pictures
Very nice fig. IMO, being pollinated it should  have generated some  more juices...

Really nice looking fig. I love the color of the pulp... That fig looks like a handful... Any idea what that specimen weighed versus the average?

Thanks,
Tony
