Hey everyone. A friend of mine has a fig tree he inherited with his house and would like to know what it is. I have a feeling I may know but I’d love expert opinions on it. It’s a two crop variety. He said the main crop is sweeter than the breba, but it keeps producing until we get frost. Taste he said was like watermelon, but it sounds like the breba may be a little bland. They sure look good to me.

Atreano is a good guess. The leaves aren't a perfect match but they are close. I was also thinking it could be something similar to Brooklyn White. I have an unknown that came from someone in NJ that is very similar (possibly the same) as Brooklyn White.Steve

Conadria is probably also a good candidate.

BlueEagle1967 do you mean you have tried to get this variety but have failed? Sorry to hear that! If I was growing it I would make you an air layer. Maybe some nice person on here will help you out. I am growing Unk. Mittica from Bill Laurie which seems to be an Atreano/Conadria type.
