Another gem from Louisiana State University’s fig breeding program, Jack Lily is an excellent early to mid-season honey fig that like seemingly every other introduction, either formal or kept alive by enthusiasts, this one too resists splitting and retains an excellent flavor well into our wet falls
A delicious fig that ripens its main crop earlier than almost any other variety! Red Lebanese produces figs that are fairly small, but it’s part of what makes it so delicious to us is the flavor and texture of the skin balancing perfectly with the sweet flesh.
A uniquely shaped fig that is very squat with a flat bottom and a unique color and taste. We’ve been impressed with how early ripening this delicious fig is.
Always on the hunt for early ripening main crop figs, we tried this newly rediscovered variety after a friend shared scion with us and touted its early ripening, and it has not disappointed!
An exciting new variety brought back from the Piedmont region of Italy by Jim Gilbert and Lorraine Gardner, Juda bears a small breba crop followed by a large main crop of black skinned figs with a honey colored flesh. Figs have a thick honey sweetness with a slight jammy-berry flavor from the dark flesh.
