I too have a bumper fig crop. I have made 4 trips to winery with figs bringing from 20 gallon baskets (about 5 lbs per basket ) to 12 baskets. Pick every 2 days. The yellow honey or golden celeste is 20 feet tall and wide and producing honey sweet figs and about 4 gals /day!! If anyone can describe the two figs to me maybe I could clarify which one it is. THX

We had normal rainfall this spring after two very dry years. But since
the beginning of July, we have received less than 1.5 inches of rain at
my house.
The figs are magnificent! They are ripening well without the typical
rot that develops in ripe figs after a rainfall. Even the Latarullas
that are typically either unripe and tasteless or rotten are finally
displaying their true dessert potential - soft, yellow and really
honey-sweet.
