This is a common fig from Madeira island. It reminds me of a Mission in shape. It’s supposed to be cold hardy. This is the 1st year it’s fruited for me. A bit of a late season fig. I found this guy on the ground of my greenhouse. So I assumed it had ripened or aborted. Or I was a little clumsy and knocked it over. Which has happened before. Tight eye. 25 Grams. This fig must have been aborted because it was quite dry when I cut it open. It’s almost not worth reviewing, but I’m putting one up for the sake of reference. It was dry and unpleasant. I’ll update this review if I can get a better fig off of this tree. It’s doubtful for this year since it’s been getting quite cold here.
