The tree is rather open, with drooping branches; terminal buds are green. Leaves variable in size and lobing, mostly 3 or 5 lobed; surface somewhat glossy; upper sinuses of medium depth and width, lower very shallow, broad; base shallowly subcordate to truncate; margins coarsely and shallowly crenate. Breba crop good; figs above medium to large, turbinate, with prominent, thick neck, or sometimes spherical without neck; average weight 78 grams; stalk short; ribs fairly prominent; white flecks variable, conspicuous on some specimens, few on others; eye large, scales straw color, erect; surface glossy, with delicate bloom; color yellowish green; meat white; pulp amber, tinged with strawberry; flavor moderately rich; quality fair to good. Second-crop figs medium to large, up to 2 inches in diameter and about the same in length, spherical or oblate, with short stalk; neck variable, present and prominent, or missing; average weight 58 grams; ribs broad, prominent; eye large, open, but internally closed by scales; surface glossy; bloom fairly heavy; white flecks large, scattered, conspicuous; skin thick, rubbery in texture; color green to yellowish green; meat white, thick; pulp strawberry; seeds fertile, numerous; texture gelatinous; flavor insipid, flat; quality fair to poor. Fruit inclined to split when nearing full maturity. Of little value, either fresh or dried." | 1643967 | DFIC 215 |
