Surprisingly good for a less than one year old plant that overwintered in the greenhouse. Pulled off all baby figs but 2, wanted a little taste. Little to no seed crunch, skin was tender. Pretty sweet and slightly figgy. Closed eye. My first "light" fig. I still like the dark better but am NOT a hater of the light!! ;o) Sorry for the quality of the pics.

Looks soo good! I have to admit that I am envious of everyone and their actual figs! I really cannot wait till mine get big enough for me to taste some homegrown figs myself =)

I could be wrong, but I believe the RR stands for Rolling River nursery, where that strain of Atreano was originally purchased.
