Nice find!  That flesh looks unique and delicious!
How will you ever decide which is your favourite fig?

I got a morena from Lubera Swiss nursery . As far as I know they are the only one that sells peretta and morena . Good to see you got one, they are very productive . Is the tree naturally dwarf as Marcus claims?

That is the closest flesh color to the unknown I have. Wish I could figure out what it is. Fabulous flavor. IMG_3825.JPG

If it is the Morena from swiss nursery Lubera...they change the names of the figs.
Morena ist Brown Turkey
Two Timer is Longue 'd Aout
Rossa Rotonda is Sultane
Only Peretta is not a renamed variety.

They work with well known Fig nursery "Mercato Verde" also from Switzerland.
Look for the fotos...Lubera uses the exact same pictures in several cases...

Lubera does this for marketing reasons.

Hello,

I have got Morena, Peretta and Rossa Rotanda. Also got Brown Turkey, Sultane and Longe d aout. 
I think Peretta looks similar to Longe d aout.
However Morena dosen't look similar to BT. Infact Morena is called Bella Brunetta Rosa on their website. 
My Rossa Rotanda  leaves looks similar to VDB, but I strongly believe its Ronde De Bordeaux.

Lubera don't really care about their figs, they call them whatever they want and they send me wrong variety twice and were quite adamant about it when I complained. But when the figs started to develop I send them pics and they accepted their mistake. i will never buy fig trees from them ever again.
