Description
The tree has a medium vigor, easily distinguished by its clear crown, with elongated branches, where the leaves are concentrated at the tips, with a rather reduced development, but at the same time with a high productivity; It has a fairly long harvest period. The figs are between pyriform and urceolate, medium, yellowish-green, uniform in size and symmetrical in shape, they do not present abnormal formations or fruits, they have a difficult abscission of the peduncle and a medium ease of peeling. The skin is thick, of a very hard, rough consistency; the pulp is orange with a little sweet flavor; It contains a lot of achenes, small ones. They are very resistant to rain and transport, have little ease of detachment; all these characteristics, added to the early season of its maturation and the ease of drying on the tree, make them very suitable for drying.
Condit Monograph
As Caseta: Described and figured by Estelrich (1910). A variety similar to Parejal, but fruit smaller, greener in color, and less pulpy. For drying, it is reported superior to Alicantina, and even more resistant to rain damage. At Pollensa, where it probably originated, it is highly regarded, and the dried fruit is the first of any variety to appear in markets.
