Description
Fiorone di Torre Canne is a variety of large, dark green fig cultivated around the cities of Torre Canne, Savelleri, and Pozzo Faceto, in the Apulian province of Brindisi. It is an area characterized by a warm climate where the land, in which the plants grow, is enriched by the contribution of springs and rivers. These are climatic and environmental conditions ideal for this plant which is able to withstand drought and saline winds.
The Fiorone is an inflorescence of the fig tree that matures in May and June. The variety of the Petrelli fig tree produces fruits on the branches of the previous year and figs on the branches of the current year. It has a large size with a dark green and thick peel. The pulp is fleshy, sweet and of a reddish colour. It is a very sweet and delicious fruit that can be eaten by itself, spread on bread, accompanied with nuts or Capocollo di Martina Franca.
Every year in Pezze di Greco the "Sagra del Fiorone Festival" where various producers exhibit their fruits.
