Maybe It Fig

[Reference entry - not a grower report] This post was generated automatically from public fig references to seed the variety archive. It's not anyone's actual growing experience, and the photos are generic Wikimedia images of Ficus carica, not this specific variety. Corrections from real growers are totally welcome. Assafri is a fig variety from the Middle East, commonly grown in the Levantine region. The fruit's supposedly medium-sized with dark brown to purple skin when it ripens. The flesh is usually amber to reddish, pretty sweet. It's known to put out two crops in the right climate—a breba crop and then a main summer-to-fall crop. There's not much published morphological detail out there in English-language pomology though, so ID should really be backed up by local knowledge or nursery docs, since it can get mixed up with other dark-skinned regional varieties.
