While we're all out enjoying the 4th of July. My Green Goliath brebas were quietly ripening on the tree.
It get's 2nd place for the earliest breba award. 1st goes to the Tauro this year.
This fig looks like it's ripe but we've had a couple very hot days so it could just be wilting a bit. I'm gonna let it sweeten a tad more on the tree.
7/6/18
Nolan was pumped when I told him that we had a ripe fig to eat. (He did a double fist pump and said Yeah!)

This is the smallest one on the tree. There are a couple others about 1.5x bigger still waiting to ripen.

The taste of the Green Goliath is like a honey melon. Balanced sweetness and decent flavor. The fact that it ripens before Desert King is quite enticing. It's my 4th of July fig. So far it has ripened exactly the same time each year. I can't wait to pick the larger ones.
