This Florea tree I have has no figs but had flowers earlier in season I'm in zone 7a. Is this the type of tree that won't bear fruit?

IF it is a mature plant and it does not have main crop fruits then it is not Florea!
If it is a tiny young plant wait for ,to mature,after 3 years old.

Yes really ,was your fig had flower , ?
I thought you are talking about early flower breba fruits .
If it has flower with regular petals,it is not a fig.

A friend used to grow his figs in a greenhouse. 
I should have taken photos of the figs they were split wide open beyond anything I had ever seen.  They were completely unfolded from a distance they looked like large red flowers in full bloom.
this stock photo is similar;
