What's The Best Honey Fig?

[ETXfigs]

I got roots! I have a Hollier cutting with roots. I know I get way too excited over these things, Lol. Thanks to the generosity of @Bofig . I would like to grow the best honey figs. I have Izbat An Naj and LSU Gold but I am going to gift the LSU Gold to a friend that just bought a new house and would like a fig tree in his yard. I have Zaffiro on my WL. I would like my honey fig collection started with these 3 varieties Hollier, Izbat An Naj, and Zaffiro. Any suggestions for other honey figs that I should add to my WL? I am interested in unique flavors. What are your favorite honey figs?

My favorite honey figs are: LSU-156, Sweet Joy, and one of the following 3 jumbo figs- Robert’s Golden Rainbow, Golden Riverside, or Orphan.

I like the female Pingo de mel I have. But not sure if the one I have is the same as the going around. I picked up Harvey's to compare.

If you ask me, the best honey fig is any fig with an intense berry flavor

Rigato Del Salento PB, Yellow Lebanese, Izbat and Naj, would be my current top 3 in Honey.

I have heard that there are a lot of different figs that go by that name.

I saw pics you posted in another thread of LSU-156. It looks very good. I may have to add that one to the list.

There is. I have three varieties. Planning to get another this cutting season. So I can compare all of them.

Personally....if I had to keep one honey fig....It would be Hollier.
Having said that...there are a few I have not tried, so in the future that could change.
