3 figs in question.
All photos taken today.

1. My fig:
Leaf:


According to the leaf shape, it is probably Brunswick (Dalmatina).
Fig survived 2 winters so far, this winter imposed no damage to the tree.
Only 1 breba on it, small and will probably fail.

Main crop starts growing:


Tree view:


Visiting neighbours across the street (2 houses behind my fig):
Fig 2 found in the yard of the house left:


Couple of weeks ago that fig was loaded with brebas. What a beatiful look was that. Meanwhile all brebas fall.
!0 day ago we were entering drought, neighbour /as she admits/ was sprinkled the whole tree using hose. I guess that didi the damage.

Fig 3 found in the yard of the house right:
Main shape of the leaf:

Notice the characteristic near my small finger.

There are also leafs like this:


Fruit eye:


Large fruits:


That neighbour has that fig for more than 30 years.
Every winter tree frozes to the ground and regrow.
It's the 1st year ever that she will have figs to harvest, at least brebas.

Any suggestion about Fig 2 & 3 variety?
