Black Genoa Figs


This is my first season with the Black Genoa. The tree is still only small, and it might have an over-sized ego. The flavour is truly magnificent, and the size more than adequate. Their ripening is akin to a woman breast-feeding. The milk is there. Now!

With both the Brown Turkey, and the Black Genoa, I eat the ripe fruit, skin and all.

I'd take a chance with these with your recommendation.
Enjoy!

Although, Birdman, to grow them in your climes would be a big ask!
