    This is one of the best Adriatic fig varieties.  It is possibly my largest adriatic variety, and both a great grower and producer with awesome flavor.

  • Atreano

    Atreano

    —

    by

    Atreano is one of my most prolific honey figs. It produces a bunch of very large figs that have a bit of pink and oragne/red to the interior. They need to be very ripe and hanging off to get their best taste. They almost have a buttery quality to them.

    A very good black madeira type, with excellent flavor. All of my black Tuscans are very productive, and seem to have more of an hourglass shape than my Black Madeiras, with a small void in the middle.

    —

    by

    Bordisot Negra Rimada is a variety with both striped wood and striped figs.  They are some of the prettiest figs out there.  They start out with lighter colored stripes, that darken as it ripens. The interior looks similar to black madeira, and also tastes great.

  • Borda Barraquer

    Borda Barraquer

    One of my favorite new varieties to me.  It consistently puts out beautiful figs with a deep pool of honey and a purple tint to the interior.  The plant grows very well for me also.

    Very good honey fig, refreshing and sweet interior. It has been mid size to small, and yellow or a bit green on the outside. This is a Nikki variety (This one has been tough for me to confirm, because of the limited pictures out there)

    One of my favorite large figs, that gets a nice crackling pattern to the exterior. Great flavor, and seems similar in size and shape to Bass’s Favorite. (A Montserrat Pons variety)

  • Campaniere

    Campaniere

    —

    by

    An excellent early fig.  To me this one has some characteristics of both honey and berry figs.  It is a red pulp, but lighter than those fully dark red interior figs.

    A very attractive fig, with a deep red interior and a light exterior, and an excellent taste.  I am also a fan of the leaf pattern of most of the CDD varieties including this one.

    This one seems like a cross between an adriatic fig and a CDD. It is a new fig to me this year, and I look forward to getting some really good ones next year.

    One of the more popular cold hardy varieties grown in the south.  A sugar fig that handles rain well.

  • Cessac

    by

    Consistently one of my favorite figs.  Often has a deep pool of fig honey in the center.  Such a great flavor.  It has similarities to Smith, but usually seems different to me.  It often contains more of the fig honey on the inside where Smith will often spill out through the ostiole.  Mine is usually…

  • Conde

    by

    Conde has been a heavy producer, and the figs do well hanging on the tree without splitting. It seems to have some similarities to Mt. etna types, while being somewhat different.

  • Craven’s Craving

    Craven’s Craving

    —

    by

    Very good tasting fig, similar to black madeira, but seems more productive so far. Possibly a bit larger, but not sure as they are the first few figs I have had off of Craven’s Craving.  It was found by “Padsfan” in San Diego CA and is a Portuguese variety.

  • Crozes

    Crozes

    —

    by

    Crozes is a great fig and prolific producer that is small to medium size. It needs to be left to ripen very dark to get its best flavor. It can be similar to the Mt etnas, but seems to consistently ripen better (darker) and more out to the edges of the fig. One of my…

    An excellent large fruity flavored fig. It is one of the best tasting with a large squat shape, and driping with fig honey. It has a unique large red eye that didn’t seem to split for me at all this year.

  • Figoin

    Figoin

    —

    by

    My first year with figoin, I would have said that it was over rated.  The past 2 years it became very productive for me, and put out multiple crops of excellent tasting soft berry figs, and is now one of my favorite and most consistent varieties.  Its ability to hold up and not spoil on…
