They were all pretty good but the one in pic 5_6 was super sweet with a berry flavor, tough skin though

That would be great Dale. I did try to identify this fig a few years back with no luck..
This fig really has changed the past few years.
I'll definitely keep you guys updated with these figs.

Hi Pedro,

Very nice set of pictures and fine fruit and veggies!
My 2 cents .. The previous pictures may show a DK breba  ?? No idea for the remaining two
The white figs on the last set, seem familiar .., but no idea on what they are
Hope you will soon show their insides...
Congratulations!

Tyler the yellowish fig is very good, the darker one is bland. I'm actually thinking of letting it go
Francisco most of my varieties are unknown, the yellowish fig is large... I do have another variety that's even bigger, hopefully there's enough time

Pedrom is that white fig the same variety as the white breba fig (the bottom one on pic#2) you showed in the first post??

Hi pedrom,
Do you have pics of the leaves of the tree for the third fig in post one ?
That one looks like "Longue d'aout".

Hi pedrom,
That one could be "Longue d'aout" . The shape of the leaves and general look of the tree are consistent with lda.
When you get more ripe figs on that one, if you post 3 different figs, I can be sure if it is or not.

"Longue d'aout" is the fig tree that every one should have - but the healthy strain, not like the first one I bought that is taken over by turtles.
The second one, I bought as an unknown, is really amazing.

jdsfrance... I think the 4th pic is the interior of the 3rd pic fig though.. Does Lda Breba have an amber interior like that?

Lucky Pedrom, you are in zone 5b and not in 5a !!
Enjoy your figs.

Our first frost of the fall expected on September 30th has been postponed to some later date due too cloud cover.
