Nothing like a delicious plate of figs to help bring a cheer to fall weather as we watch summer sliding away.

Many Sicilian Red, Dalmatie and Ciccio Nero ripening daily.  Makes a full month of production for these 3.  
Also a some new figs adding to the diversity.  Still have the late ripening figs that need a shot of summer to finish their ripening.

Enjoy, comments welcome!

        

Hi Pino,
If possible, could you post pictures of your Bifara leaves.
All your figs look delicious. Congratulations.

Hi Pino
looks very nice
Buon Appettito e buona digestione

Nice bounty of figs Pino.

 My goal is to extend my season with new varieties so I can enjoy my figs longer like yourself.

Always enjoy your photos Pino.  

Enjoy your bounty.

[QUOTE=Sas]Thank You. I have a Scicilian fig was told that it's a Bifera (no fruit yet) and was wondering if it will ever fruit after four years. Here's a pic of the leaves. They look different than yours I guess. [/QUOTE]Hi Sas
Sorry don't recognize your fig.  Leaves look healthy and interesting!

The Bifara fig as far as I know is the one from the Bellclare list that Jon and others carry. 
The name is misleading because I don't think it is bifarous.  So I have no idea why it was named Bifara..lol  It is a big black fig some 2" or so I forgot to weigh it but it felt about 95 grams.  A little bigger than the dalmatie.  I have another one ripening but it is very slow.

They look fantastic, Pino! I have Belleclare's bifera as well ( mine is only a first year) and I wondered what they looked like. Thanks!

Grzie Ralph!

Thanks for the compliments Tony and Steve!

Steve, we are both close to Lake Ontario so our weather is similar.  
There are many fig choices for our area. 
Maybe avoid the late ripening figs unless you have a lot of time to devote to them or have greenhouse facility.   

Wow, that is a deliscous crop, Pino! I can only hope for such bounty when my little figs grow up :-)

Thanks Meg!

With the effort you are putting in.   I'll bet in a year you will have so many delicious figs you won't know what to do with them all.

Hi Pino. Thanks for that post and pics. Blowing Northeast here 25-30 mph and rain. Makes me feel better even though my figs are out in it.

Wow, great looking figs! Nice selection, congratulations!

Hi Pino,
Nice haul !
I'm currently busy making jam with mine. I can't eat them all :) .

Thx Pino....but I have already erected a greenhouse the last 2 springs for my lone fig tree....so doing that dance...which only takes about 1 hour...again in the fall to extend my season really isn't a problem. I actually have it already planted out for my 5 trees that I will have for the start of next season.

@jdsfrance - great to hear you are getting great production.  I have my freezer full of figs and have been drying figs also since the kids love dry figs during winter.  I may try fig jam with some.  I should be able to just scoop out the Dalmatie and put in a jar..lol

@Steve - sounds like you are on your way to some decent fig production!

Thanks to all for your comments. 

We have a break in the rain so heading out to see what figs I can pick.  I hope my Sal's C didn't split.
