Just picked this morning,could have waited a day but it's the first of my season.
Mildly sweet with a very pleasant flavor.

Looks good to me. Will be interested to see how they turn out up here. I've been looking for a good, reliable two-crop fig.

Good looking breba. It's nice to see all those little ones growing there too. They have an awesome purple/red color to them. Best of luck

Doesn't have many brebas. The quantity of brebas seems to be weather driven as some years definitely have more than others. Thus year is the heaviest have seen in 30 years.

Nice looking structure it looks as though the previous years paid off.

How long did it take for them to ripen?  I'm having a patience problem, I finally stopped feeling the brebas every day.
