A few pics of this mornings figs. Only a couple were very good due to age of trees (first year) and or I had to pick
to soon cause I will not be here to enjoy the next few days.




Macool, little jammy berry flavor, a 6 today.


Black Greek, a little sweet and  jammy berry. Lots of potential at a 7.



Sals El, very good, a little sweet and figgy at an 8


Sals El GS, needed another day or two but will get there.


Unk Rosemary's New York (KK), needed several more days.


Red Lebanese Bekka, a little sweet and a little tart and jammy berry. This could be a really good fig next year at an 8.


White Genoa was a bust. Needed several more days.
Marseilles Black vs needed a couple more days.

Nice little harvest! Weren't you the one that threw in the towel on reaping a few weeks ago? :)

I'm sorry Mike, I may have confused you with Bullet perhaps?
Please disregard and I hope you enjoyed your fig rewards!

Meghan, I didn't report on the BT in this post since I had a dedicated post
to it on 9/2/13. I gave it an 8.5, it was quiet sweet and juicy. The problem
with this fig is that it splits really bad in my climate.
