Came to me from friend in Fredricton citing this strain is from Canada fig King Adriano. For 3 yrs
in a row, I have been harvesting brebas from it. Definite keeper. Productive tree. Picking several
of this fig & others for a friend BBQ invite this evening.

Paul,
Good looking fig. Nice color and elongated shape. I am interested in seeing the pulp.

Yes, that is a beauty Paully. I see several on Adriano's site that I wish were available here.

How's the taste, Paul?  Looks crunchy.  Looks hefty in size, too.  Are the main crop just as big?

Hey Paul you ever get main crop to ripen? Main crop is better tasting than Breba but breba is also tasty.

I grew this variety for 4 years along side Dusan's bronze Paradiso and found no difference both started showing severe fmv and died last winter. Very good flavored figs and very productive.

The main crop fig is highly productive like a SOW. Ripens a little late. Will take a picture tomorrow
and post.
