Normally I shed attached pictures when quoting but I love this one! Not me but I can dream that it could be, right?

I have grown 3 "don't bother figs"-Celeste, Magnolia and Brown Turkey. The first 2 tend to rot even before the birds attack even up north and BT fruit is really puny. I never got a breba crop with any of them and I consider 2 cropping with great taste as judged by my tasters to be crucial if you're going to the effort to grow them. (Blackie makes great jam; #2 can be digested out of hand.)

I believe that's a Tiger Stripe fig Tony posted. If not, I'm also wanting to know the variety.
