Figs are unique too! I've got a large Brown Turkey and it's really wild how they just appear out of the stems unannounced without any flowers or big show. Especially on mine, because of where it's located, you can't see the figs until they're almost ready to pick--then they seem to pop out of the foliage suddenly Although something always gets them every time like two weeks before they're ripe, it's just one day, they're gone.
