2013 Breba fig that taste poorly is Blk Ischia. Most tasty is Petite Aubique. The rest have high quality taste. If Blk Ischia main crop taste like its breba, it will be given away. Blk Ischia has best color.

Paul, Waiting for my Nardy Black to ripen. we're expecting the next couple weeks to be in the upper 70's and 80's. This will help with the ripening.

@ Rafed, you will enjoy it. Big, sweet, juicy & slight melony taste. Productive main crop with smaller fig size.

@ Harvey, I like it better than Conadria, Aldo, Shar Israel, All my Paradiso's, Latarulla, Latorolla, Pennisi, Excel, DK, Longue d'Aout, Firione du Ruvo and many others. This variant has done well in Toronto. An excellent find by Prof Bostock in Vancouver.
