That's a very nice picture. Can you comment on the productivity and flavor?

[Gardencrochet]

I didn't get a chance to taste it. Hubby and kids took the picture and ate them before I got the chance. He said it's a keeper though. "Very sweet and tasty!" Got my tree from Bass almost two years ago.

Nice! ...Training the family to take pics of the figs. Now just need to get them to save you some.

I did have the sweet joy this year not bad but, a small fig.

It's a honey fig, right?

[npolaske]

Bass described it as molasses flavor, so I'm not sure if it's a honey or sugar fig. It's a relatively rare and expensive variety, so I'm trying to figure out if it's special or unique in someway that would make it worthwhile to get.

[exoticplants1]

I would say, It's a cross between honey and molasses flavor.
