Beltrana, Burgan Unk & A Sangue….is this what heaven feels like?

[Evan]

Days like today are what make this hobby so enjoyable. These figs were outstanding in so many different ways…

Beltrana is a beautiful large fig (60-70g range) with an incredibly thick pulp. I’ve been waiting two years for this fig and it did not disappoint.

Burgan Unk turns a very attractive purple/turquoise when it starts to ripen. The skin was chewy and the pulp was nice and sweet.

A Sangue is a large fig with one of the most beautiful pulps once caprified. Thick, syrupy pulp with a moderate berry flavor and good sweetness. The skin was light and melted in the mouth. This one was truly excellent.

It’s all jam!!! Very nice

That’s some serious fig porn! Wish I had some.

Hmm... I have been looking at A Sangue, but put it off because I hadn’t heard anything good about it. But it’s a good one in your estimation? May have to get a cutting or two this winter.

[Evan]

If you have the wasp, it’s a MUST have. If you’re still looking by winter, let me know and I’ll send you a cutting or two.

[RosyPosy]

Evan Well then I am putting it on my list if it’s a must have! 😁 Thanks!

Wow Evan those look amazing! Have a few A Sangue ripening on a small tree from you, hopefully they don’t drop. Beltrana and Burgan Unk I painfully have been plucking figs off this year, trees are just too small.

[Evan]

I hope your A Sangue figs hang on! I will caution that my first year figs on this variety did not ripen properly but hopefully that isn’t the case for you. Are your Beltrana or Burgan in-ground? Or pots?

[bkkchris]

Evan Thanks for the heads up. Figured they'll probably drop or not ripen proper, but though I would leave em on the tree and see. All my trees are in pots only unfortunately!

[Evan]

bkkchris I was going to say Burgan grows like a monster in-ground but if space is tight then I understand. I wish I could put all of our trees in-ground

[bullet08]

beautiful!

[Bellefleurs]

Really nice!!
I had not realized that Burgans UNK was that color.
My tree has figs but hasn’t ripened any yet.
Thank you for sharing your gorgeous fig photos.

[Evan]

I actually didn’t realize Burgan was that color either until I saw Steve’s (Fruitnut) photos. It’s easy on the eyes!

[Vitaly Krovlev]

Wow …

[Halligan-]

Huba huba!

[Netstars]

Did they satisfy your inner Figster Evan?
Those large figs are so incredible.
🤯

[Evan]

I was content, my friend! It brought a smile to my face, that’s for sure.

[Recklesstown_Chad]

Dude! Your getting good with that camera. Those look irresistible. Nice job.

[Newbie2figs]

Looks nice Evan !! My list is growing foe the fall , unk and A sangre and on the list now.. Thank you for the pictures it sure helps to see what to except ( I now it would be different in Texas but it still a keeper)

[claret]

Thanks! Those are some heartless devils, to be showing their enticements off that way. Your're a lucky man, Evan!

Just double-checking: the 1st two photos are Beltrana, the 2nd two are Burgan, and the final three are A Sangue, right? (There's a way to make captions appear when you hover over a photo here, but I haven't read up on it yet either. All I see when I hover is the photo's ID number.)

[Evan]

That's correct! I can probably rename the images before I upload to make it easier to identify. I'll try to remember next time.

Great looking figs!
