The first JH of this year. It's one of the white figs that can compete with the dark ones. Gave it a 9.

Lost mine to the cold winter. Was hoping to discover for myself what you have described.

I have a couple or so but have to wait until next year for fruit, a 9 is worth the wait. Thanks Art.

Art, do you have any problem with them splitting even in dry weather. I have ripened a few and they were great tasting but many of them start to swell rapidly and split at the eye before they ripen. In a few days they are split completely wide open but not ripe. The ones that do ripen don't swell as much and develop brown sugar spots and taste great.

Gene,
I had one split badly a couple weeks ago but it was during rain. I have another one ripening now, I will see how it does.

Mine was an 11 out of 10- it is one of the best white figs in my collection! If I had room for only one white fig (sorry Martin), it would be this one.
