Elongated shape (rather than round or squat like many figs). Green background, blushing to a bronze-brown striping. Thick skin, chewy, good flavor with caramel/ brown sugar tones.
Undeveloped seeds (not crunchy). Has a good second crop. The mother tree is from the Sagasser Rnch on the Salmon River in far northern California, and has survived untended for many years in a very challenging situation. Diane Wickstrom's grandfather, who was a whaling captain in the late 1800s, settled here on the river and sent for his sweetheart in the Azores to come join him. She brought along a cutting of this fig from the Isle of Flores.
