Sorry, no pics. Just shared a couple Smith Figs with my daughter. They were knocked off of the tree last night with the rain according to her. Which means, she probably pulled them off. Hahaha. Anyways, the first 2-3 we had from it weren’t good at all. Tasted earthy and just weren’t good. The couple we ate today reminded me of a strawberry jam. Pretty cool to finally have some figs that taste good!

They are some of my favorites, and one of the only varieties I hand pollinated that worked well. :)

Smith is definitely one of those 2 to 3 yrs trees...most even to produce.
I know mine were and I had 5 Smith trees from 3 sources.
I'm down to 3 now.
A must have for everyone though. :)

I’m not sure how old this tree is. It’s deff a couple years old. Just not exactly sure as it was a given to me a while back. The crazy smith cutting I have is from this tree though lol. So it’s cuttings are crazy vigorous.

I keep forgetting to pick one up at cutting season. I always get excited about something else. It's been on my list forever.
