Looks an AWFUL lot like my LSU purple, but mine doesn't crack like that, nor does it have an open center.
Thus...Black Mission then? Nice n simple, so probably not, but worth a shot.

He was out watering figs and Japanese maples. Can you Floridians send a little water north please? Good job Tony.

Ok, everyone stop guessing. It's a Fracazzano Nero.
Fracazzano or Ficazzana means breba in Italian dialect. This is not a breba but still a very large fig.

Frank, I would have to say that it was just a lucky guess. Does that mean I get the title of "Fig Connoisseur" for an hour? Woo hoo, Boo yah!
