We had to compete with wasps and hornets
to pick these from our friend’s fig tree. Worth the effort!

I still haven’t tasted a fresh fig; these look good enough to eat.
Unlike Christine I eat figs alot, and these lovely ones look like some that I get locally, imported from Turkey and sometimes Chile…..I am guessing these are local to you, and they look good in this picture…..
Hi Julia and Anne,
thanks for stopping by. they might be the same, these are white figs as the heart is surrounded by a white pulp, they are lovely, but the season has still to reach its summit with the arrival of the small figue violette at the end of August gorgeeous. Check out tonights painting; Fig Jam mmm!
