Hi! Everyone, I bought this tree about a month ago from a friend. She collected it somewhere in Maryland but she did not know the cultivar name. They had a little jammy, little crunchy and figgy taste. I gave it a 7 from 1 to 10 scale. Please let me know if anyone does recognize this cultivar name. Thank for watching.

Beautiful fig. Hopefully, you'll get it identified, but it looks like Norman's Yellow.

Just a thought, because I am in no way beyond identifying figs as dark or light, but noticed some similarities with photos and descriptions posted at http://figs4funforum.websitetoolbox.com/post/anyone-recognize-this-fig-7048323?pid=1284011272#post1284011272

Dale: Thanks for the link. My friend told me a few times ago that she had the Yellow Long Neck fig trees but I have not seen that trees yet. She used masking tape to label most cultivar names of her fig trees, but all her masking tape labels had faded by the weather now. So, my tree is the Yellow Long Neck. Thank you very much. Best, Tam
