Glenn,
I can't help but laugh, LOL. I'm not being insulting, Its a beautiful tree. With the marker you have in front of it that looks like a Cross the tree looks like its marking a grave.

Peter's Honey looks very much like my tree, the fruit too except that mine didn't have the brown marks on the skin. Unless these are over ripe. Are your's juicy?

Thanks for posting the pictures.

mine looked the same this year I hope to retake a picture if we can dry out long enough to pick a good fig.they all seem to be wanting to split about 2 weeks before 100% rpe so i have to pick at a somewhat meaty stage. We've gotten rain every single day for 3 weeks straight. Living in SC you appreciate raiin because of it's absences during the summer into fall, but WTF! I'm about to have my sons start building an ark down here!!!! peters honey does get better I promise, and the inside will have a golden jelly look when fully ripe. the fig will wrinkle a tad then you'll know it's ready. It's a great fig, it's just not a good fig for rainy spots of the US.

Does anyone recognize this as Peter's Honey?

This one's from Monrovia via local garden center--at least labeled as Peter's Honey. The leaves of the Peter's Strawberry look a little different than mine, but the fig you have in your group picture (same fig?) looks like the classic description of a little green Sicilian fig. I'll try to post a picture of the interior when figs ripen, of course, no caprification here. I was wondering if the 1-2-1-2 pattern was distinctive for certain figs. Most of mine are 1-1-1-1 or 0-0-0-0.

Hi Fortisi I'm probably not the best one to ask as I have only eaten a half dozen off this tree. Sweet, but not real "figgy" --the flesh is amber colored. The eye opens up a little as they get really ripe, but is often sealed by a drop of sap. I'm going to reserve judgement on it till next year. Eat4Fun Yes, this one is in a container. I found that it really likes the sun, so it is in my hottest spot flattened on a brick wall. I got this one in the spring as a 2+ year old (after a nursery accident broke it off and put it on the discount rack) and it put on figs this summer (and still is, but many won't ripen).

I think they were a bit over ripe, and not really juicy.
You're right, it does resemble a grave marker, but hopefully will withstand the elements. A heavy guage aluminum sign on a cypress post.
It seemed that this tree was slower than most of the others in its growth, and I really wasn't expecting to get anything from it this year.

Glenn, my Peters Honey came from One Green World. Looks like yours. Not as big and no fruit.
