Smith: Sweet syrupy berry goodness I missed so much. As the season goes the flavor gets more tropical. Good pulp texture with light seed crunch. Skin has a slight snap. FIRST Main crop for the season for Smith.

LSU Scotts yellow: Sweet sugar/Honey with light seed crunch. Skin has a snap and fruity meaty pulp texture that I like. This variety is productive early and usually ripens all its crop in bunches before the end of August.

Flanders: My first fruit off this young potted tree. Potential for sure. Crazy long neck! I should’ve measured it, New record. Lol
sweet sugar/honey texture with Super soft pulp and no seed crunch.

Iranian Candy: I’ve had a dozen or so by now. And a dozen more ripening and bagged. Honey goodness.

You’ll be in need of a larger plate once the other figs come online.

So sugary sweet.

Question, why do some Black Celeste have the dark red inside?

Question, why do some Black Celeste have the dark red inside?

Time of the year and how much sun is hitting it. These hidden under leaves appear lighter.

 

[JC Figgy]

More delicious black Celeste.

What do you think about it.

 

[bushdoctor82]

All great looking figs.

Have you been experiencing the same perfect weather we are having in NJ right now - warm and dry? Does Figue Juane have a tendency to split with the open eye?

 

[JC Figgy]

What do you think about it.

They are good when they don’t split on me in heavy rains.
