Another super fig for Seattle. It also comes in many names! Small but very tasty! It holds on to it's leaves longer than most other figs, which may make it cold tolerable fig that ripens in cool temperatures, but could suffer from frosts damage if it's branches do not lignify in time. The leaves range from single to 3 lobes.

Notes:
Split resistant
The skin although not as tough as Peter's Honey is not as enjoyable to eat as others with soft skins
Ripens in Late September
